Punjab Under Fire: Pakistani Drone Targets Civilians, Multiple Injured

National News: In response to the earlier military action under Operation Sindoor by India, Pakistan tried to do another nefarious act last night, which failed to fail in front of the Indian air security system. On the intervening night of 8 and 9 May, Pakistan made 36 attempts for drone attacks in different parts of India from Kashmir to Kutch in Gujarat. Indian security forces killed around 70 drones, while the remaining drones returned to the border.

Residential areas targeted in Punjab

A Pakistani drone targeted the residential area in Ferozepur, Punjab, injuring a family. The injured have been taken to the hospital for immediate treatment. At the same time, two drones were seen in Dera Baba Nanak area of ​​Gurdaspur, which BSF killed in time.

Blackout in Kashmir, Army Alert

A drone was also killed in Avantipora in South Kashmir. After the attack, a full blackout was done in the valley and the army is placed at the highest vigilance. Thousands of citizens located near LOC have been taken to bunkers and safe places due to heavy firing of Pakistan in three border districts.

Alert also in the border villages of Gujarat

The administration has declared a blackout in 24 border villages of Banaskantha district of Gujarat. District Collector Mihir Patel has appealed to the citizens to avoid rumors and follow the instructions of the administration. Security forces have also been placed on high alert in this region on the western border of India.

India's air defense system showed strength

India's air defense system-including S-400, Barak-8, Akash Missiles and DRDO's anti-drone technology, amidst an attempt to send around 300 to 400 drones by Pakistan-unprecedentedly crushed the enemy's plans. The Indian Air Force and the Army together neutralized all these efforts.

Citizens should be cautious, avoid rumors

Both the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Home Affairs have appealed to the citizens to exercise restraint and immediately inform the security forces about any suspicious activity. Also, media and digital platforms have also been advised to avoid live coverage of military operations, so that the security system of the country is not affected.
