The Indian Army successfully neutralized multiple armed drones over Khasa Cantt, Amritsar, early this morning after they were spotted flying over the region. The drones, believed to be of Pakistani origin, were engaged and destroyed by India’s air defence units at approximately 5 AM.
The incident marks another escalation in the ongoing military tensions between India and Pakistan. The Indian Army has condemned the hostile drone activity, describing it as an unacceptable violation of India’s sovereignty and a direct threat to civilian safety.
“Pakistan’s blatant attempt to violate India’s sovereignty and endanger civilians is unacceptable,” a statement from the Indian Army read. “The Indian Army will thwart any enemy designs and continue to defend our borders with unwavering resolve.”
This latest drone strike is part of a broader pattern of escalating hostilities along India’s western borders, where Pakistan has recently resorted to drone and missile attacks targeting military and strategic sites. India’s swift response demonstrates its commitment to securing its borders and safeguarding both civilian and military infrastructure from external threats.
Authorities are continuing to monitor the situation closely, and the Indian Army has reassured the public that measures are in place to prevent further incursions.
