India Pakistan LIVE Updates: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday met chiefs of Army, Navy and Air defence services to review the situation. He also dialled the Rajasthan and Punjab chief ministers and took stock of the border situation in both the states.
In the wake of the ongoing situation, Gujarat government also imposed a ban on the use of firecrackers and drones in any event or function.
Pakistan launched a barrage of artillery fire, drone, and missile attacks on multiple locations in Jammu, including a key airstrip, just a day after India conducted strikes against terror hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). The drones had cameras installed in them and were possibly relaying footage to their ground stations. The Indian air defence systems took out almost all the drones that could have caused damage to infrastructure.
India also swarmed Islamabad, Lahore and Rawalpindi with drones, launching multiple retaliatory strikes and forces shot down an F-16 fighter jet in Rajasthan in an effective response to Pakistan’s unprovoked attack in Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Rajasthan.
India launched “precision strikes” under Operation Sindoor on nine terror targets in Pakistan and PoK following the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians.
