Tensions continue to rise between India and Pakistan. The latest development is that Pakistan’s Rawalpindi National Cricket Stadium became the target of an Indian Army drone strike. The attack took place just hours before a scheduled Pakistan Super League match at 8 PM tonight.
The stadium was set to host a high-voltage clash between Peshawar Zalmi and Karachi Kings, but the drone strike has left the venue in ruins.
According to some X users, the roof, VIP boxes, and media gallery of the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium were completely destroyed in the attack. As a result, the match has now been shifted to Karachi.
Also, according to Geo Super TV, the Pakistan Cricket Board has called for an emergency meeting to discuss the future of the remaining PSL matches. The meeting was prompted by the drone attack on the Rawalpindi stadium. The board is likely to consider postponing the tournament or shifting the matches to alternative venues.
Social media is abuzz with unconfirmed reports and visuals from the incident, which is already sparking political and security-level conversations.
