What were the key battles of the Kargil War?

Key battles included the Battle of Tololing, the Battle of Tiger Hill, and the Battle of Point 4875. These engagements were fought over strategically important mountain peaks that had been occupied by Pakistani forces. Indian troops ultimately recaptured all of these positions after weeks of intense fighting in the rugged Himalayan terrain.
