In a dramatic escalation of cross-border hostilities, Indian air defence forces intercepted more than 600 drones launched by Pakistan targeting 30 critical military and infrastructure sites across Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, and Rajasthan. The attacks occurred overnight on May 8, triggering blackouts, air raid sirens, and high-alert protocols in multiple cities. The drone offensive appeared to be a direct retaliation following India’s Operation Sindoor, which targeted terrorist camps in Pakistan. The large-scale aerial threat marks a new phase in India-Pakistan tensions, prompting global concern and calls for restraint.
