Multiple explosions rocked Lahore following India`s Operation Sindoor targeting terror camps. No official word on casualties yet. Regional tensions rise.

Three explosions were heard in Lahore’s Walton Road area on Thursday morning, according to Pakistani news reports. Police and security forces quickly reached the area, sealed it off, and started an investigation. So far, there is no official word on what caused the blasts or if anyone was hurt.
These explosions happened shortly after India carried out a major military operation called Operation Sindoor. In this operation, the Indian Army and Air Force worked together to destroy nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). These camps were linked to groups like Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM), Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), and Hizbul Mujahideen.
India launched the operation to respond to a terror attack on April 22 in Pahalgam, Jammu & Kashmir, where 26 tourists were killed.
Because of rising tension in the region, reports say that Lahore and Karachi airports have stopped operations for now, though there is no official confirmation yet.
More updates are expected soon.
