India, Pakistan tensions did not involve nuclear threats: Foreign Secy Misri informs Parliament committee
- On May 19, 2025, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri informed a New Delhi parliamentary committee about the recent India-Pakistan conflict and the bilateral ceasefire reached on May 10.
- The conflict escalated after the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, prompting India to conduct Operation Sindoor strikes on May 6-7 targeting nine terror camps.
- Misri clarified that the strikes were conventional, did not target nuclear infrastructure, and that Pakistan did not issue any nuclear threats during the conflict.
