RAWALPINDI – Pakistan forces have neutralised a total of 77 Indian drones in different cities of the country in a powerful response to the Indian aggression.
By the evening of May 8, 29 Indian drones were downed, sources said, adding that another 48 were destroyed since last night till today.
They said that the Pakistan Army is giving a strong response to the enemy’s aggression..
The ISPR said any drone is monitored on radar when it enters the Pakistani airspace, adding that our defence system is capable of tracking even small drones.
DG ISPR stated that there is an operational procedure for shooting down drones in the presence of civilian areas and commercial flights. He emphasized that Pakistan’s defense system and air defense network are continuously thwarting enemy attacks.
Defense experts said the tracking of each drone clearly indicated that Pakistan’s defence and air defence systems are extremely robust and capable.
In previous two days, the Pakistani forces downed 29 drones in different cities, including Lahore, Rawalpindi, Chakwal, Gujranwala, Gujrat.
Meanwhile, Pakistan has rejected in strongest terms, the baseless and irresponsible allegations propagated by Indian media, accusing Pakistan of launching attacks on Pathankot, Jaisalmer, and Srinagar.
In a statement on Thursday, the Foreign Office said these Indian claims are entirely unfounded, politically motivated, and part of a reckless propaganda campaign aimed at maligning Pakistan.
It said repeated pattern of leveling accusations against Pakistan without any credible investigation reflects a deliberate strategy to manufacture a pretext for aggression and to further destabilize the region.
Such actions not only further endanger regional peace but also reveal a disturbing willingness to exploit misinformation for political and military ends.
The statement said Pakistan urges the international community to take serious note of this dangerous behavior and to counsel India toward restraint and responsibility.
Any escalation based on false pretenses will be met with full resolve and determination to safeguard Pakistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity.
