India has attacked Pakistan with drones. It happened early on Thursday morning. The drones hit at least 10 cities. These include Karachi, Lahore, Rawalpindi, and Mianwali. People heard loud blasts in many places. Sirens rang out in fear.
The attack came after a missile strike earlier this week. Tensions between India and Pakistan are rising fast. Pakistan said the drones were made in Israel. These drones can spy and attack. They are called Harop drones.
The air attack caused panic. In Lahore, people heard sirens at dawn. Soon after, loud blasts shook the Walton Road area. A house roof collapsed. One person died. Four army officers got hurt. The attack was not in just one place. Pakistan said the drones hit many areas. These include Gujranwala, Chakwal, Attock, and Mianwali. There were also hits in Rawalpindi and Karachi.
Right after the blasts, Pakistan’s army took action. They stopped flights in many areas. They sent out soldiers. They also turned on their air defense systems. The goal was to shoot down the drones. Pakistan said they destroyed 25 drones. They used jammers and anti-air systems. Still, some drones made it through. These drones hit buildings and army bases.
People in Pakistan are scared. There is a red alert in many cities. Roads are closed. Planes are grounded. Soldiers are everywhere. Shops are shut. People are told to stay inside. Pakistan said the attack came from India. They believe the drones were flown across the border. India has not made a public statement yet. But Pakistan’s military says they have proof.
In reply, Pakistan took strong action. They said they hit Indian army sites during the night. They claim to have killed 50 Indian soldiers. They also say they destroyed a brigade headquarters.
Firing also broke out at the border. It happened at the Line of Control (LoC). Pakistan said one Indian soldier died in the gun battle. They believe more may have been hurt.
The fight between the two countries is getting worse. People fear it could lead to war. Many countries are watching. They are calling for peace. Pakistani media is showing pictures of damage. Buildings are in ruins. Streets are empty. Smoke is rising from blast spots. Videos show broken drones lying on the ground.
People in Lahore, Karachi, and other cities are still scared. “We woke up to blasts. My kids were crying. We ran out of the house,” said a man in Walton Road. Pakistan’s army held a press talk. They said India broke the peace again. “India used drones to hit our land. But we hit back. We will defend our country,” they said.
The drones used were Harop models. These are made in Israel. They are small. But they are deadly. They can fly far. They can target buildings, vehicles, or people.
These drones are called “kamikaze drones.” They crash into targets and explode. That’s what makes them so dangerous. They are hard to stop once they are near. Pakistan said some drones hit homes. Others hit army offices. Hospitals are treating the injured. Doctors say more people may be hurt.
People are asking for calm. But fear is spreading. Many schools are closed. Offices are shut. In some cities, mobile networks are down. People online are sharing photos and videos. Some show fire and smoke. Others show army trucks moving fast. Social media is full of fear and anger.
Leaders from around the world are reacting. Some are asking India and Pakistan to stop. They want talks, not war. The UN said it is watching the issue closely. This is the worst fight between India and Pakistan in many years. Both sides are blaming each other. Each side says they are only defending their land.
But the fear of war is real. People in both countries are worried. They want safety. They want peace. The coming days will be very important. Will there be more attacks? Or will both sides talk? The world is waiting for answers.
For now, Pakistan stays on red alert. Soldiers are guarding the skies. People are hoping the worst is over.
