At least 11 Pakistani soldiers were killed and 78 others were injured in foiling what has been termed as "unprovoked and reprehensible" attacks by India, the Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) stated in a release on Tuesday. ISPR, the military media wing of Pakistan, also added that 40 civilians, among them seven women and 15 children, were killed in the fighting, and 121 civilians were injured.
Among the killed soldiers, six belonged to the Pakistan Army and five belonged to the Pakistan Air Force. The martyred army personnel include Naik Abdul Rehman, Lance Naik Dilawar Khan, Lance Naik Ikramullah, Naik Waqar Khalid, Sepoy Muhammad Adeel Akbar, and Sepoy Nisar.
The Pakistan Air Force confirmed Squadron Leader Usman Yousuf, Chief Technician Aurangzeb, Senior Technician Najeeb, Corporal Technician Farooq, and Senior Technician Mubashir as killed.
"Their noble sacrifice is an enduring symbol of courage, devotion, and unwavering patriotism — etched forever in the nation's memory," wrote the ISPR statement.
The army pledged stern action against any further aggression, declaring that "any move to test Pakistan's sovereignty or territorial integrity will meet a prompt, full-spectrum, and determined response."
Tensions along the border continue as both countries are keeping a close eye on the situation.

'Don't Equate Terrorists With Victims': Jaishankar's Stern Message, India Slams Terror Sympathy
In a powerful diplomatic moment, US Congressman Brad Sherman directly confronted a Pakistani delegation led by Bilawal Bhutto Zardari during their visit to Washington, DC. Sherman demanded action against the Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed, which was responsible for the 2002 murder of American journalist Daniel Pearl. He also called on Pakistan to release Dr. Shakil Afridi, the doctor who helped the US locate Osama bin Laden. Additionally, Sherman urged Pakistan to ensure religious freedom for Hindus, Christians, and Ahmadiyya Muslims. This high-level meeting took place alongside the Indian parliamentary delegation visit, where Shashi Tharoor and others briefed US officials on Operation Sindoor and India's counter-terror strategy post the Pahalgam terror attack.

India receives request from China's staunch enemy for D4 anti-drone system, not US, Vietnam, Philippines, Indonesia, it is...
New Delhi: Taiwan has officially asked India for the weapons with which India had destroyed Pakistani drones during Operation Sindoor. Taiwan has sent a request to buy the D4 anti-drone system developed by India's DRDO and Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL). China is bound to get angry at this request of Taiwan because China does not want any country to help Taiwan. But the way China is giving defense packages and modern weapon systems to Pakistan, experts say that India should also hand over similar weapons to Taiwan. The D4 anti-drone system has been developed by India's DRDO and manufactured by Bharat Electronics Limited (BEL). The power of the D4 anti-drone system was seen during Operation Sindoor, when Pakistan attacked India with about 300 to 400 drones made by Turkey and China. During this time, India shot down all the drones in the air itself. India also shot down Turkey's Bayraktar TB-2 drone. This revealed the strength of India's advanced soft kill jamming and hard kill laser capability which stunned the world. D4, i.e. Detect, Deter, Destroy, Defend, is an integrated anti-drone system developed jointly by India's DRDO and BEL (Bharat Electronics Limited). This system works at 4 levels. Detect: Accurately detects the presence of drones with multi-frequency radar and EO/IR sensor. Deter: It can deviate enemy drones from the mission through signal jamming and GPS spoofing. Destroy: Drones armed with laser-based hard-kill technology and RF jammers in the system can be destroyed in the air itself. Defend: Ensures the protection of sensitive areas from any remaining drone or swarm attack. China considers Taiwan as its part and has clearly stated that it does not mind using force to merge Taiwan with China. In the last few years, China has increased its military exercises and drone surveillance in the Taiwan Strait. Since 2024, the PLA has doubled the number of surveillance and attack drones near the Taiwan border. In such a situation, there is a great need for a first-rate anti-drone system for Taiwan.

YouTuber Jasbir Singh's police remand extended by two days in spying case
A Mohali court on Saturday extended for two days the police remand of Punjab-based YouTuber Jasbir Singh, who was arrested on espionage charges on June 4. Jasbir Singh was produced before the court after his three-day police remand ended on Saturday. Police sought a seven-day remand but the court granted them two days, his counsel said. Jasbir Singh was in touch with influencer Jyoti Malhotra, who is in custody on charges of spying for Pakistan, and after his arrest the police had said that it had unearthed a terror-backed espionage network linking him to Pakistani intelligence and army officials. The police had said that the YouTuber was allegedly spying for Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI). Jasbir Singh, alias Jaan Mahal, 41, a resident of Mahlan village in Rupnagar district, was running a YouTube channel JaanMahal Video with over 11 lakh subscribers, ostensibly posting travel and cooking vlogs. He was found to be associated with a Pakistani Intelligence Operative (PIO), was in contact with a Pakistan High Commission official who was recently expelled from New Delhi on charges of spying and had met Pakistan army officials during one of his three visits to the neighbouring country, police had earlier alleged. He was found to be associated with PIO Shakir, alias Jatt Randhawa, part of a terror-backed espionage network. The accused had also travelled to Pakistan in 2020, 2021 and 2024, and came into contact with ISI officers, who subsequently cultivated and recruited him to carry out espionage activities within India, the police had said. Hisar native Jyoti Malhotra, 33, who was running the YouTube channel, Travel with JO, was arrested last month. On May 13, India had expelled Ehsan-ur-Rahim alias Danish, who was posted at the Pakistan High Commission, for allegedly indulging in espionage. Malhotra was allegedly in touch with Danish since November 2023.
