India has claimed that Pakistan unleashed up to 400 Turkish drones to attack 36 locations in the country, using civilian planes as shields. The plan intended to probe Indian defenses fell flat, as tensions between the two countries remain high following earlier escalations.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi presided over a high-level meeting with defense officials in response to this development. The BSF reported that infiltrators attempted to breach the India-Pakistan border, resulting in seven terrorist fatalities.
In Jammu, citizens faced a second night of darkness amid blasts and sirens. Meanwhile, ongoing diplomatic measures are being pursued internationally to de-escalate the tense situation between India and Pakistan.
