The ongoing conflict between India and Pakistan has entered a new phase with the world’s first drone war between nuclear-armed rivals. After India accused Pakistan of launching drone and missile strikes on military bases, Pakistan claimed to have shot down 25 Indian drones. India responded with precision drone strikes, escalating tensions further. Experts say this technological shift, involving loitering munitions, surveillance drones, and stand-off attacks, reduces human risk but increases the chances of miscalculation. With both sides integrating unmanned systems into military doctrine, global observers warn the conflict is at a critical tipping point with unpredictable consequences. (PC: Getty Images)
