New Delhi, 1st August 2026: The story behind one of India’s most significant recent military operations is set to reach audiences through a new documentary series, Declassified: Operation Sindoor, which will premiere on Discovery Channel and Discovery+ on August 15, coinciding with India’s Independence Day celebrations.
The documentary promises to take viewers behind the scenes of Operation Sindoor, offering an in-depth account of how the mission was planned and executed. It will feature first-hand accounts, exclusive visuals and insights from those directly involved, shedding light on the strategy, coordination and decision-making that shaped the operation.
According to the makers, the series aims to present the untold story of the operation by combining official accounts, expert analysis and never-before-seen material. It is expected to provide viewers with a detailed understanding of the mission and the events leading up to it, while documenting a key chapter in India’s military history.
