As the conflict between Israel and Hamas intensifies, India has initiated “Operation Ajay” to ensure the safe return of its citizens from the affected region. The operation was set in motion on a Wednesday in response to the escalating tensions.
The conflict erupted when Israel retaliated against Hamas’s attacks, which commenced on a Saturday. Israel responded by declaring war against Hamas and establishing a war cabinet. In contrast, Hamas has expressed its readiness for a protracted conflict, raising concerns about the safety of civilians caught in the crossfire.
Currently, there are approximately 18,000 Indian nationals residing in Israel, and the Indian government is taking all necessary measures to evacuate them safely. Operation Ajay represents India’s commitment to the well-being and security of its citizens abroad during times of crisis.
This situation underscores the significance of diplomatic efforts to de-escalate tensions in the region and ensure the safety of innocent civilians. As the conflict unfolds, the international community watches closely, hoping for a swift resolution that brings peace and stability to the region.
