Pakistan claims to have shot down 12 Indian drones overnight and said drone attacks had left one civilian dead and four soldiers injured.

Pakistan’s military spokesperson Gen Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said at a press conference that India had “apparently lost the plot” as he accused it of“yet another blatant military act of aggression” in sending more than dozen drones overnight over major Pakistani cities including Rawalpindi, where Pakistan’s military has its headquarters.

He said Pakistan’s air defence systems had brought down 12 drones, and a confrontation with another airborne Indian device had left four Pakistani soldiers injured. He said a civilian in the Miano area of Sindh, which borders India, died in an incident involving a drone, but did not give further details.
