India has accused Pakistan of escalating tensions by launching hundreds of Turkish-made drones into Indian airspace, targeting military infrastructure and using civilian airliners as shields. Indian forces intercepted many drones, while Pakistan kept its airspace open, endangering commercial flights. India retaliated with strikes on air defense sites and terror launchpads, citing a prior terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir.

Ministry of external affairs has strongly refuted Pakistan's accusations of Indian forces attacking its own cities, dismissing them as a "deranged fantasy" and disinformation. This denial follows Pakistan's retaliatory actions, including drone and missile attacks on Indian cities, which India claims were a response to Operation Sindoor, targeting terrorist sites.

Amid escalating military tensions between India and Pakistan, the IPL 2025 has been suspended, prompting Michael Vaughan to suggest completing the tournament in the UK.

The remaining matches' fate remains uncertain.

Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khwaja Asif and Information Minister Attaullah Tarar claimed five Indian fighter jets were shot down.

Following Operation Sindoor, MeitY issued an advisory for Indian internet users, emphasizing responsible online behavior and caution against misinformation. The advisory outlines dos and don'ts, including sharing verified information and avoiding posts inciting violence. The Ministry of Information & Broadcasting has also advised OTT platforms to discontinue content originating from Pakistan in the interest of national security.

In a recent press conference, Colonel Sofiya Qureshi revealed that Pakistan launched a massive drone intrusion, sending 300-400 drones across 36 locations from Leh to Sir Creek, targeting Indian military installations. Indian armed forces successfully intercepted many drones using both kinetic and non-kinetic methods.
