The Indian Perspective: Skirmishes Galore- Drones Down: In an alleged drone attack on India, Pakistan attempted to make its mark, but our brave forces have swatted these drones out of the sky like pesky flies. #Winning- Counter-Attack: Operation Sindoor Following a heinous attack in India-controlled Kashmir that claimed the lives of 26 innocent souls, mostly tourists, we took matters into our own hands, targeting Pakistan's air defense system. Our objective? To ensure no more harm comes to our land and people.
The Pakistani Angle: Claiming VictoriesIn retaliation to Operation Sindoor, Pakistan fired back, shelling Indian military installations along the Line of Control (LoC). They boasted a claim of killing 40-50 soldiers, but alas, it seems their aim was off-mark, as heavy shelling in India's Poonch district resulted in the tragic deaths of at least 16 civilians and an Indian soldier.
Blown Out of Proportion: Jammu Air Force BaseDespite rumors, the Jammu Air Force Base has not been directly targeted by the aforementioned drone attacks. However, residents in Jammu reported air raid sirens, explosions, blasts, and red flashes from projectiles in the sky. Sounds like a bit of a firework show, if you ask us.
