Chandigarh's Air Raid Alert: Tension in the Air as Indo-Pak Relations Escalate

Chandigarh residents were urged to remain indoors after an air raid siren sounded across the city, a precautionary measure amid heightening tensions between India and Pakistan. The alert was issued following intelligence from the air force station regarding a potential aerial attack.

Similar alerts were issued in neighboring regions, including Panchkula, Mohali, and Patiala. Authorities advised residents to stay away from windows and open areas as tensions simmered between the two nations.

This development follows an escalating series of military actions between the countries, including recent missile strikes by India on terror targets in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir as retaliation for past attacks. The Pakistani military's attempts to target multiple cities reflect ongoing hostilities, raising concerns for civilian safety.
