Pakistan unlikely to abandon proxy war, says former army commander who led the western front in Operation Sindoor
Former Western Army Commander Lt Gen Manoj Katiyar stated Pakistan's military views proxy warfare as a low-cost tool, unlikely to abandon terrorism. He emphasized India's responses must escalate beyond tactical punishment to impose sustained costs, evolving deterrence into compliance. Perception management through information and cyber warfare is crucial for future conflicts, which will be multi-domain.
