Pakistan shoots down six more Indian drones
ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Armed Forces shot down six more Indian drones of Israeli origin in three separate locations across Punjab, raising the total number of neutralised drones to 35.
Security sources said, one drone was intercepted in Vehari, another in Pakpattan, and four were destroyed in Okara.
Director General Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) said all drones were being tracked through radar systems.
“Whenever an enemy drone enters our airspace, it is continuously monitored,” he said, adding that Pakistan’s air defence is capable of detecting even small aerial threats.
He said, strict operational procedures are followed to safely eliminate drones, especially near civilian areas and commercial air routes.
Defence analysts praised the swift action, calling it further proof of Pakistan’s strong defence readiness. “The precise tracking and neutralisation of these drones reflects the advanced capability of Pakistan’s surveillance and air defence systems,” said milit experts.
Earleir, Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar and DG ISPR Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said that India’s drones targeted civilian areas and tried to hit milit sites, calling it a serious act of provocation.
During an important press conference, the deputy prime minister, along with DG ISPR, said that Pakistan has the right to respond under Article 51 of the UN Charter, which allows a country to defend itself. He warned that if India tries anything again, it will face serious consequences.
