|May 27, 2025
INDIA's robust air defence system thwarted Pakistan's retaliation to Operation Sindoor by neutralising 413 drones and several Chinese-made missiles launched into Indian territory along the western border, according to BSF Rajasthan Frontier IG, M Garg.
He told the media on Monday that Pakistan tried in vain to target several sensitive locations, including the Phalodi airbase in Rajasthan. "Not only did it (Pak) send drones and missiles, but also moved Army units and tanks close to the border. However, Indian forces were already on high alert to deal with the offensive," he said.
