Laura Loomer, a right-wing personality and an ally of US President Donald Trump has tweeted in favour of India after the Indian armed forces launched 'Operation Sindoor' targeting terror infrastarure in Pakistan and the training facilities used by Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM).

In a post on X, Laura Loomer wrote,"India is going to win." It was shared by Loomer just hours after India launched the precision targets on terror infrastructure in Pakistan.

Laura Loomer's post has since gone viral with as many as 30,000-plus Likes, 2,800-plus Retweets and 1.4 million Views and over 2,000 replies on the tweet.

Loomer has been banned from numerous social media platforms, including Facebook. She posted during last year’s presidential campaign that if Harris beat Trump, “the White House will smell like curry & White House speeches will be facilitated via a call center.” Harris was the first Black woman and person of South Asian descent to serve as vice president.

In December, she publicly sparred with billionaire adviser Elon Musk, a native of South Africa, over their opposing positions on the use of skilled migration visas.

The conservative activist says such visas go against the “America First” agenda. Her account on X, a social media platform owned by Musk, was temporarily suspended, and for some time following the feud, she said she lost access to other paid features.

Meanwhile, India on Thursday said it foiled Pakistan military's attempts to attack 15 places in Northern and Western India using missiles and drones, and destroyed a Pakistani air defence system in Lahore as tensions between the two sides mounted amid fears of a wider conflict.

The defence ministry said the Pakistani military attempted last night to target Awantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Pathankot, Amritsar, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Adampur, Bhatinda, Chandigarh, Nal, Phalodi, Uttarlai, and Bhuj.

These attempts were neutralised by the Integrated Counter Unmanned Aircraft System (Grid and Air Defence systems), it said.
