The government said Pakistan's drones and missiles were neutralised by the Integrated Counter UAS Grid and the Russia-made S-400 Triumf air defence systems.
Harpy drones were used by the Indian military to target enemy air defence systems.
After all-party meeting in New Delhi, Shiv Sena MP Shrikant Shinde says, "The Defence minister (Rajnath Singh) informed us today that more than 100 terrorists were killed when we attacked terrorist camps...".
Air Defence System HQ 9 : Made in China, reportedly "buried" by Indian forces in Lahore
"Surprisingly, China didn't take as much of pro-Pakistan stand; it needs India": - Shashi Tharoor on Operation Sindoor
The armed forces targeted air defence radars at a number of locations in Pakistan and destroyed the system in Lahore on Thursday after Islamabad attempted to strike 15 military targets in India in response to Operation Sindoor.
Sources said the HQ-9 missile defence system units, developed by China, were hit, effectively rendering the Pakistani army defenceless in Lahore.
The government's statement came shortly after Pakistan claimed one drone crashed near Lahore, while 12 others were taken down close to Gujranwala, Chakwal, Bahawalpur, Miano, Karachi, Chhor, Rawalpindi, and Attock. Pakistan claimed that four army personnel sustained injuries in Lahore while one civilian was killed in Miano, Sindh.
Trinamool Congress MP Sudip Bandyopadhyay says, "TMC stands firmly beside the Armed forces, Air force and the government of India. The terrorist forces in Pakistan have been given a befitting reply...
We are united, our fight against terrorism stands very boldly with all the Army forces and the government from the beginning. We stick to that...".
"On the night of 07-08 May 2025, Pakistan attempted to engage a number of military targets in Northern and Western India including Awantipura, Srinagar, Jammu, Pathankot, Amritsar, Kapurthala, Jalandhar, Ludhiana, Adampur, Bhatinda, Chandigarh, Nal, Phalodi, Uttarlai, and Bhuj,
using drones and missiles.
These were neutralised by the Integrated Counter UAS Grid and Air Defence systems. The debris of these attacks is now being recovered from a number of locations that prove the Pakistani attacks.
Pakistan has increased the intensity of its unprovoked firing across the Line of Control using Mortars and heavy calibre Artillery in areas in Kupwara, Baramulla, Uri, Poonch, Mendhar and Rajouri sectors in Jammu and Kashmir.
Sixteen innocent lives have been lost, including three women and five children, due to Pakistani firing.
Here too, India was compelled to respond to bring Mortar and Artillery fire from Pakistan to a halt.
"Indian armed forces reiterate their commitment to non-escalation, provided it is respected by the Pakistan military" - Defence ministry
