Tensions are soaring between India and Pakistan as Indian air defence systems successfully intercepted eight Pakistani missiles aimed at several locations, including Satwari and Samba, according to defence sources. The nature of these attacks has drawn parallels to Hamas-like operations, prompting India to retaliate strongly.
In response to the provocations, Indian forces conducted precision strikes targeting terrorist infrastructures in Pakistan. According to Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, these actions were restrained and focused on non-civilian entities. The escalation, which began in April, has seen ongoing retaliatory measures between the two countries.
The Defence Ministry reported that Pakistan attempted multiple engagements using drones and missiles. India's decisive actions have led to the neutralization of several targets within Pakistan. Amidst rising tensions, both nations emphasize the importance of non-escalation while continuing to respond to provocations.
