Tensions flared along the India-Pakistan border after Pakistani drones struck a civilian area in Punjab's Ferozepur, injuring three people. SSP Bhupinder Singh Sandhu confirmed the victims suffered burn injuries and are under medical care. The Indian Army swiftly responded, neutralising most of the drones. Meanwhile, drones were also spotted near Srinagar International Airport, accompanied by loud explosions, prompting a security lockdown. In a related precautionary move, Himachal Pradesh's Solan district declared a blackout amid escalating cross-border threats. These incidents signal rising tensions, prompting heightened security along India's northern frontier.
