News Summary:

Maxar Technologies provided high-resolution satellite imagery to government bodies worldwide, including India’s Ministry of Defence and ISRO. A report highlighted an unusual surge in orders for high-resolution satellite images of Pahalgam and its surrounding areas in the two months before a terrorist attack on April 22nd. Maxar partnered with a Pakistani firm last year, and this partnership provided high-resolution satellite images of Pahalgam two months before the attack that killed 26 civilians. Questions arose regarding whether the same satellite imagery that aided India in Operation Sindoor also aided Pakistan-based terror camps in planning attacks. Following a news report, Maxar's 'Find a Partner' page no longer listed the Pakistani firm. A paper details the accuracy assessment process for WorldView-1 and WorldView-2 satellite products.
