- In a coordinated attack during the night of May 8–9, Pakistan deployed an estimated 300 to 400 Turkish-made drones targeting military sites across 36 locations, including Jammu, Punjab, and Rajasthan.
- The drone assaults occurred amid escalating tensions and were coupled with missile launches following India’s Operation Sindoor on May 7, which targeted militant facilities across Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
- India activated a comprehensive air defence network including S-400, Barak-8, Akash missiles, and an Integrated Counter-UAS Grid to track, jam, and neutralise the attacks effectively.
- Colonel Sofiya Qureshi stated that air defence artillery successfully downed fifty drones, while radio frequency jamming neutralized an additional twenty, resulting in the interception of all drones and missiles to prevent significant damage.
- The attack heightened India-Pakistan tensions, led to blackouts in Punjab, and resulted in India retaliating by destroying Pakistani military targets and air defence systems.
