India successfully thwarted attempts by Pakistan's military to hit key military installations across 15 cities using advanced defense mechanisms, including the S-400 missile defense system, amid growing tensions between the two countries.
The Indian forces responded decisively, targeting an air defense system in Lahore after the Pakistani attack. This strategic counteraction comes on the heels of India's missile strikes on terrorist positions in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir. The situation has led to heightened military alertness on both sides.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh emphasized India's commitment to safeguarding its sovereignty. Meanwhile, escalated cross-border firing by Pakistan led to civilian casualties, underscoring the volatile regional environment.
