India Pakistan LIVE Updates: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday met chiefs of Army, Navy and Air defence services to review the situation. He also met a group of armed forces veterans today and had an extensive interaction with veterans on various issues on the current situation.

Earlier in the day, PM Modi dialed the Rajasthan and Punjab chief ministers and took stock of the border situation in both states.

In the wake of the ongoing situation, the Gujarat government also imposed a ban on the use of firecrackers and drones in any event or function.

As the tensions continue to rise, IndiGo announced the cancellation of flight operations to and from some cities across the country including Srinagar, Jammu, Leh, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Bikaner, Dharamshala, Rajkot, Jodhpur, and Kishangarh.

Pakistan launched a barrage of artillery fire, drone, and missile attacks on multiple locations in Jammu, including a key airstrip, just a day after India conducted strikes against terror hideouts in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). The drones had cameras installed in them and were possibly relaying footage to their ground stations. The Indian air defence systems took out almost all the drones that could have caused damage to infrastructure.

India also swarmed Islamabad, Lahore and Rawalpindi with drones, launching multiple retaliatory strikes and forces shot down an F-16 fighter jet in Rajasthan in an effective response to Pakistan’s unprovoked attack in Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Rajasthan.

India launched “precision strikes” under Operation Sindoor on nine terror targets in Pakistan and PoK following the Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 civilians.
