India Foils Pakistan’s Drone Attack: 500 Drones Shot Down in 210 Minutes Across 4 States

In a dramatic escalation, India successfully thwarted a massive drone attack launched by Pakistan, neutralizing over 500 drones in just 210 minutes. The coordinated assault targeted four Indian states: Jammu & Kashmir, Punjab, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. India's advanced air defense systems, including the S-400 and indigenous technologies, were fully deployed to intercept the drones mid-flight.
