Tensions Escalate: Drone and Missile Confrontations Between India and Pakistan
India and Pakistan, two nuclear-armed neighbors, are engaged in heightened military confrontations involving drones and missiles. Pakistan claims to have shot down 25 Indian drones, while India states it neutralized Pakistan's attempts to strike military targets. Both countries have suffered civilian casualties, and global powers urge restraint.
India and Pakistan have entered into intensified military confrontations, with each nation accusing the other of aggressive actions. Pakistan claims it shot down 25 drones from India, marking a sharp escalation in tensions between the nuclear-armed neighbors.
In response, India insists it has 'neutralized' Pakistani attempts to strike military targets with coordinated drone and missile attacks. The exchanges follow India's recent airstrikes on alleged terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan, after blaming the country for a deadly attack in Indian Kashmir.
Civilian casualties have been reported on both sides, with global powers like the U.S. and China calling for de-escalation. The situation is straining Pakistan's economy as financial markets react to the unrest.
