In the wake of India's Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist groups in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, there has been significant interest in the identities of the terrorists who were eliminated. The operation confirmed the deaths of Hafiz Muhammed Jameel and Mohammad Yusuf Azhar, both related to Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) chief Masood Azhar. The government reported that at least 100 terrorists were killed during this decisive action.

Reports indicate that Mudassar Khadian Khas, also known as Abu Jundal from Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), was killed during the strike on Markaz Taiba in Muridke. His funeral was attended by high-ranking officials, including Pakistan Army Chief Asim Munir and Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz. Hafiz Muhammed Jameel, the eldest brother-in-law of Masood Azhar, was also killed; he played a significant role in JeM's operations and youth radicalization.

Mohammad Yusuf Azhar, known by several aliases, was another casualty. He was responsible for JeM's weapons training and was implicated in various terror incidents in Jammu and Kashmir, including the IC-814 aircraft hijacking. Khalid, alias Abu Akasha, a member of Lashkar-e-Taiba, was involved in multiple terror operations and arms trafficking, with his funeral attended by military and civil officials.

Lastly, Mohammad Hassan Khan, linked to JeM and the son of a commander, was instrumental in planning terror activities in Jammu and Kashmir.

Launched on May 7, Operation Sindoor was a direct response to a terror attack in Pahalgam that resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians. The Indian Air Force and Army collaborated to execute precise strikes on nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. Utilizing loitering munitions, kamikaze drones, and advanced artillery, the operation was meticulously planned based on reliable intelligence to neutralize significant terror threats.

During this operation, nine terrorist sites were targeted, with five located in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and four in Pakistan. This marked a notable escalation compared to the 2019 Balakot strike, which targeted only one site. The locations included key terror bases associated with Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammed.
