India Turns Missile Threat into Scrap Metal: Pakistan’s Attack Completely Foiled

Indian defense forces successfully intercepted a large-scale drone and missile attack launched by Pakistan on Thursday night, targeting military installations across 15 cities in northern and western India, including Jammu, Amritsar, Pathankot, Ludhiana, and Chandigarh. India's S-400 missile defense system effectively neutralized the threats. The attack followed the April 22, 2025 Pahalgam attack where 26 tourists were killed by gunmen affiliated with The Resistance Front, a proxy of Lashkar-e-Taiba. In response, India launched Operation Sindoor, precision strikes on nine terrorist camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, neutralizing over 100 terrorists. Defense Minister Rajnath Singh confirmed this. Former UK PM Rishi Sunak stated India was justified. India maintains its actions are defensive.
