The 1965 war was not limited to Kashmir. It was fought in multiple sectors along the India-Pakistan border. Fighting started in the Rann of Kachchh and later spread to the western states of Punjab and Rajasthan in India as well as the Lahore and Sialkot sectors of Pakistan. The war also included several air battles, such as the strike on Pakistan’s Sargodha airbase.
