Just minutes after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s national address on the India-Pakistan military conflict, suspected Pakistani drone activity was reported from the Samba district in Jammu and Kashmir, according to ANI.

Security forces immediately responded with precision fire, engaging the aerial targets. Locals in Samba reported hearing explosions and seeing red streaks in the night sky, consistent with air defence interception efforts.

Another journalist confirmed the drone sightings and assured residents that the situation was under control.

“Reports of drone activity in Samba of Jammu & Kashmir. No need to panic. Just stay indoors. Forces are firing at drones. No other firing taking place in the area,” said a local official.

This development followed Prime Minister Modi’s sharp remarks on Pakistan during his 8 PM address, where he declared:

“Buri tarah pitne ke baad Pakistan sena ne DGMO ko sampark kiya,”
indicating that Pakistan had sought a ceasefire after suffering significant damage to its defences and drone fleet.

The PM also praised the Indian armed forces and air defence systems for their “exceptional performance in destroying enemy drones and missiles mid-air.”

As of now, no casualties have been reported, and blackout protocols were initiated in bordering regions like Amritsar and Samba as a precautionary measure.

Security forces remain on high alert.
