India Closes Skies to Pakistan After Pahalgam Attack: How Airspace Ban Is Squeezing Pak’s Economy?
Pahalgam Attack: In a bold retaliatory move following the deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, India has closed its airspace to Pakistan — a decision with sweeping geopolitical and economic consequences.
In this exclusive conversation, Dr. Vandana Singh, Chairperson, Aviation Cargo, FAII, breaks down what this closure actually means, how it’s impacting both Indian and Pakistani airlines, and why Pakistan’s fragile economy may bear the heavier blow.
In a dramatic escalation of the conflict, Russian air defenses claim to have repelled one of the largest Ukrainian aerial assaults to date, intercepting 170 drones and 11 missiles—eight of them U.S.-supplied Storm Shadows—across multiple regions. Crimea bore the brunt of the attack, with 96 UAVs downed, prompting a four-hour shutdown of the strategic Crimean Bridge. Russia’s Ministry of Defense also reported the destruction of 14 unmanned Ukrainian naval vessels in the Black Sea. Explosive debris from the attack damaged residential buildings in Novorossiysk, injuring four civilians, including two children.
