Hint:

Important operations: \[ \text{Desert Storm} \rightarrow \text{Iraq} \] \[ \text{Enduring Freedom} \rightarrow \text{Afghanistan} \]

Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Let us match each operation correctly.
Step 1: Operation Desert Storm \[ \text{Operation Desert Storm} \] was launched against: \[ \text{Iraq} \] during the Gulf War. Thus: \[ A \rightarrow II \]
Step 2: Operation Restore Democracy \[ \text{Operation Restore Democracy} \] was carried out in: \[ \text{Haiti} \] to restore the elected government. Thus: \[ B \rightarrow I \]
Step 3: Operation Infinite Reach \[ \text{Operation Infinite Reach} \] targeted locations in: \[ \text{Sudan and Afghanistan} \] Thus: \[ C \rightarrow IV \]
Step 4: Operation Enduring Freedom \[ \text{Operation Enduring Freedom} \] was launched in: \[ \text{Afghanistan} \] after the September 11 attacks. Thus: \[ D \rightarrow III \] Therefore, the correct matching is: \[ A-II,\ B-I,\ C-IV,\ D-III \] Hence: \[ \boxed{\text{(A)}} \]
