ISLAMABAD – Four fighter jets of Indian Air Force retreated after the Pakistan Air Force (PAF) took swift and vigilant action near the Line of Control (LoC). Security sources said four Indian Rafael jets conducted patrolling within Indian geographical limits over India-occupied Jammu and Kashmir on the night between April 29 and 30.
The PAF aircraft promptly detected the presence of these Indian fighter jets. In response to the swift and vigilant action by the Pakistan Air Force, the Indian jets retreated, security sources added. Pakistan’s armed forces remain fully alert and prepared to give a befitting response to any aggression from India.
On Tuesday, the Pakistan Army shot down another Indian quadcopter along the Line of Control (LoC), making it the second Indian drone taken down in a single day, said ISPR. According to the military’s media wing, the Pakistan Army continues to give a strong and fitting response to India at the LoC. The latest quadcopter was shot down in the Satwal sector, where it was found conducting surveillance inside Pakistani territory. The downed drone has been identified as a Phantom-4.
Earlier in the day, the Pakistan Army downed a quadcopter belonging to the Indian Army’s 5 Assam Regiment in Manawar Sector near Bhimber.
Defence experts say India’s irresponsible actions are further escalating tensions. They add that this incident clearly reflects the Pakistan Army’s professional capability, preparedness, and vigilance.
