India marks a decade since the surgical strikes of September 29, 2016, which defined its counter-terrorism strategy. The operation targeted terror launch pads in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in response to the Uri attack. This marked a significant shift towards visible retaliation against terrorism after years of restraint. Similar strategies were applied in subsequent operations like Balakot and Operation Sindoor.
