From Tololing to Tiger Hill: Five mountain victories that secured India's Kargil triumph over Pakistan

The Kargil War of 1999 was not won in a single battle. It was secured through a series of hard-fought victories across some of the world's most unforgiving terrain, where Indian soldiers climbed near-vertical cliffs under enemy fire at altitudes exceeding 16,000 feet. Each captured peak altered the course of the conflict, weakened Pakistan's defensive positions and brought India closer to reclaiming every inch of its territory.
