Indian armed forces destroy Pakistani posts, launch pads; intercept multiple Pakistani drones
Blitz Bureau
NEW DELHI: In yet another befitting reply to Pakistan’s nefarious activities, the Border Security Force (BSF) has completely destroyed a Pakistani post and a terrorist launch pad in Looni, District Sialkot, opposite Akhnoor area, from where the tube drones were being launched to attack India. “On 9 May 2025, from about 2100 hrs, Pakistan initiated unprovoked firing on BSF posts in the Jammu Sector. BSF responded in a commensurate manner, causing widespread damage to the posts and assets of the Pakistan Rangers along the International Boundary.
“The terrorist launch pad at Looni, District Sialkot opposite Akhnoor area was completely destroyed by the BSF. Our resolve to protect India’s sovereignty is unshaken,” the BSF said in a statement.
In another significant development along the Western front, the Indian Army on Saturday confirmed that its air defence units had intercepted and destroyed multiple armed drones from Pakistan flying over Khasa Cantt in Amritsar, reaffirming its resolve to counter any threat to national security.
“Pakistan’s blatant escalation with drone strikes and other munitions continues along our western borders. In one such incident, today at approximately 5 a.m., multiple enemy armed drones were spotted flying over Khasa Cantt, Amritsar. The hostile drones were instantly engaged and destroyed by our air defence units,” the Indian Army stated.
Condemning the provocation, the Army said, “Pakistan’s blatant attempt to violate India’s sovereignty and endanger civilians is unacceptable. Indian Army will thwart enemy designs.”
The Ministry of Defence also raised serious concerns over the increasing provocations from Pakistan, particularly in the form of drone incursions and artillery attacks along the western frontier.
“Pakistan’s continued escalation along the western front through drone incursions and munitions is a matter of grave concern… This blatant attempt to violate India’s sovereignty and endanger civilian lives is unacceptable,” the ministry said in a statement.
