Pakistan said its army shot down an “Indian drone” that was trying to violate its airspace along the Line of Control, according to the country’s state-run television.
It follows a warning by Pakistan’s defense minister that they believe an Indian attack could be “imminent” and that it would consider using its nuclear arsenal in response to “a direct threat to our existence.”
The Indian Army accused Pakistan of unprovoked small arms fire along the Line of Control overnight on April 29, and said it gave a measured response, the Indo-Asian News Service reported.
The India-Pakistan tensions have flared in the aftermath of the Pahalgam terror attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir.
This is a breaking news story and more information will be added soon.
