Leh Schools Shut Amid Rising India-Pakistan Tensions

The Leh administration announced a two-day closure of all schools due to escalating tensions between India and Pakistan. The move follows India's interception of Pakistani military's missile and drone attempts targeting military stations. Authorities urge vigilance, offering emergency assistance through hotline 112.

The Leh administration has declared a temporary closure of all schools in the district on May 9 and 10, amidst rising tensions between India and Pakistan. The decision, announced by Deputy Commissioner Santosh Sukhdeva, comes in response to heightened security concerns.

On Thursday night, India intercepted an attempt by the Pakistani military to target various military stations in Jammu, Pathankot, Udhampur, and other areas using missiles and drones. This interception has led to strained relations between the two countries, sparking fears of an expanded military conflict.

In light of these developments, residents are being urged to remain on high alert and to contact emergency services at 112 if needed.
