Pahalgam Terror Elimination: India’s Swift Justice in Operation Mahadev| Oneindia

Pahalgam Terror Elimination was executed with precision and resolve as India’s security forces took down the three terrorists responsible for the brutal April 22 Pahalgam attack. Under Operation Mahadev, the Indian Army, CRPF, and Jammu & Kashmir Police eliminated Suleman, Afghani, and Jibran near Srinagar. Forensic tests, Pakistani-made arms, and direct identification confirmed their involvement. The Pahalgam Terror Elimination showcases India’s zero-tolerance stance against terrorism and the government's commitment to justice. In Amit Shah’s words, the message is clear—those who attack innocent lives on Indian soil won’t walk away. Pahalgam Terror Elimination is more than an operation—it's a declaration. #PahalgamTerrorElimination #OperationMahadev #IndiaFightsTerror #JusticeForPahalgam #AmitShahSpeech ~HT.178~PR.282~CA.144~GR.125~

Hamas Rips into ‘MAD’ Netanyahu over ‘DELIRIOUS’ plans of ‘Greater Israel’ | Vows REVENGE for Gaza

Hamas has condemned Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s “Greater Israel” remarks as “madness” and a threat to regional stability, urging Arab states to cut ties with Israel and back Palestinian resistance. Hamas accused Israel of using settler violence as part of an annexation strategy in the West Bank, vowing continued defiance against occupation. Iran’s Foreign Ministry also slammed the plan, warning it targets territories in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, and Syria. Netanyahu called the vision a historical and spiritual mission for Israel. #Hamas #Netanyahu #GreaterIsrael #Palestine #Israel #Gaza #WestBank #MiddleEastConflict #BreakingNews #Iran #ArabWorld #Resistance #OccupiedTerritories #Annexation #RegionalTensions #PalestinianRights #IsraelPolitics #MiddleEastNews #Jerusalem #GazaWar #PalestinianResistance #SettlerViolence #InternationalRelations #IranIsrael #RegionalStability Also Read Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid Domestic and International Criticism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825995.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid Domestic and International Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825985.html?ref=DMDesc Netanyahu Defends Expanded Military Offensive in Gaza Amid International Criticism :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-defends-new-military-offensive-in-gaza-011-7825981.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~
