On April 29, 2025, Pakistan’s military announced it had shot down an Indian surveillance quadcopter that allegedly crossed into Pakistani-controlled airspace in the Bhimber sector of Azad Jammu and Kashmir. The incident occurred amid heightened tensions following a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, Indian-administered Kashmir, which claimed 26 lives—mostly Indian tourists. India blames Pakistan-based militants for the attack, while Pakistan denies involvement. The shootdown adds to the already volatile situation along the Line of Control, as both nations remain on high military alert. Global powers, including the U.S., have urged restraint and renewed dialogue between the nuclear neighbors. (PC: Arab News)
