eznews.inIndia's air defense system successfully intercepted two waves of missile and drone attacks from Pakistan within 48 hours, safeguarding military installations across Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, and Rajasthan. The first wave of attacks commenced on May 7, following India's Operation Sindoor, which targeted terror camps in Pakistan. Utilizing advanced technologies, including the S-400 missile defense system and Israeli-made HARPY drones, Indian forces effectively neutralized threats aimed at 15 cities. The second wave prompted air raid sirens and a blackout in border towns, but Indian defenses once again proved resilient. The integrated counter-unmanned aircraft system (C-UAS) played a crucial role in detecting and neutralizing aerial threats, employing various countermeasures. India's defense arsenal includes the short-range SAMAR system and the indigenous Akash missile system, enhancing the country's capability to defend against diverse aerial threats.

Authorities urged the public to refrain from sharing unverified information, especially amid rising tensions between India and Pakistan. The spread of such misinformation could incite panic, leading to long queues at banks. The Indian Press Information Bureau has debunked multiple false claims circulating online, including a misleading video of a farm fire mistaken for a drone attack and erroneous reports of military incidents involving non-existent Army units. These developments come in the wake of escalating tensions following a Pakistan-backed terrorist attack that resulted in 26 civilian deaths in Jammu and Kashmir.

Published: May 09 2025, 11 ameznews.inNEW DELHI: India thwarted an infiltration attempt in the Samba sector of Jammu and Kashmir last night, resulting in the deaths of seven terrorists, according to the Border Security Force (BSF). The BSF reported that Pakistan Rangers provided cover fire from the Dhandhar post to aid the infiltration, which was detected by surveillance systems. In response, Indian troops neutralised the threat and inflicted significant damage on the Pakistani military post, sharing video evidence of the destruction. This incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding Pakistan's role in supporting terrorism across the border, as India has consistently accused it of sheltering terrorists. The infiltration attempt followed a series of failed aerial strikes by Pakistan targeting Indian military bases and cities, all of which were intercepted without casualties. In anticipation of further attacks, civil administrations enforced a blackout in border areas, and air sirens were activated in Chandigarh, prompting residents to seek shelter.

In an interview with CNN, Kwatra condemned the attackers, describing them as "lowlifes" and "subhuman monsters," asserting that they would not be given a free pass. Following the attack, India launched 'Operation Sindoor' on May 7, targeting terror facilities in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir linked to the UN-proscribed group Lashkar-e-Taiba. Kwatra emphasized that the response was calibrated and proportionate, aimed at delivering justice to the victims. He criticized Pakistan for supporting terrorism rather than taking action against it, highlighting a pattern of denial regarding its involvement in terror activities. He urged the international community to pressure Pakistan to cease its support for terrorism, stressing that this remains the core issue of concern.
Published: May 09 2025, 11 ameznews.inNEW DELHI: The Indian Army has reportedly utilized Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs) to target and destroy several Pakistani military posts across the Line of Control (LoC) in response to cross-border firing by Pakistani troops. This escalation follows a recent terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam that resulted in 26 fatalities. ATGMs are precision weapon systems designed to neutralize heavily armored vehicles, employing guided technology for enhanced accuracy. They deploy shaped charges to penetrate tank armor, with some modern variants featuring tandem warheads and dual-mode seekers for improved targeting. While advanced tanks can deploy reactive armor and active protection systems to counter these missiles, ATGMs remain a critical component in modern warfare, with over 130 countries employing them. Recently, India also conducted aerial strikes against terror camps in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir and successfully intercepted multiple drone attacks targeting military installations.

The presentation followed India's airstrikes on nine terrorist sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, targeting the Jaish-e-Mohammed headquarters in response to a recent terror attack in Pahalgam that left 26 dead. He also highlighted Pakistan's lack of credible cooperation in past investigations, referencing the 2016 Pathankot attack and the 2008 Mumbai attacks, where evidence provided by India was disregarded.

The Indian Army reported that it effectively repulsed the attacks and retaliated against ceasefire violations along the Line of Control.
