Tensions escalate as Pakistan reports India launched missiles at its air bases, triggering retaliatory strikes. Pakistan claims interception of most missiles, targeting Indian facilities in response.

Pakistan airbases Nur Khan in Rawalpindi’s Chaklala, Murid in Chakwal, and Rafiqui in Jhang district’s Shorkot, of the Pakistan Air Force, were targeted.
