Pakistan Armed Forces shoot down 77 Indian drones: security sources 

Islamabad (Web Desk/Agencies): Islamabad (Web Desk): Pakistan Armed Forces, while responding to aggression, intercepted and shot down 77 Israeli-made Herop drones, sent by India to target civilian and military installations, the security sources confirmed on Friday.

“By the evening of May 8, Pakistan shot 29 Indian drones, while an additional 48 drones were destroyed since last night,” the security sources stated.

They added that Pakistan was giving a “befitting response” to Indian aggression.

Earlier, Director General Inter-Services Public Relations (DG ISPR) Lieutenant General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said all drones were being tracked through radar systems.

“Whenever an enemy drone enters our airspace, it is continuously monitored,” he said, adding that Pakistan’s air defence is capable of detecting even small aerial threats.

He said, strict operational procedures are followed to safely eliminate drones, especially near civilian areas and commercial air routes.

Defence analysts praised the swift action, calling it further proof of Pakistan’s strong defence readiness.

“The precise tracking and neutralisation of these drones reflects the advanced capability of Pakistan’s surveillance and air defence systems,” said military experts.
