This response came after repeated Pakistani attempts to infiltrate Indian airspace using drones during the night of 8–9 May 2025, specifically targeting civilian zones in Jammu & Kashmir and Punjab.
According to the official statement, these launchpads served as key bases for planning and facilitating cross-border terror activities. Situated close to the LoC, they were long identified as staging grounds for militants attempting to disrupt peace in India’s border states.
