Pakistani jets on Tuesday violated the Line of Control this morning, sources said, prompting Indian Air Force fighters to launch counter operations.
Multiple sources confirmed that Pakistani fighter jets crossed over the Line of Control (LoC) and entered the Nowshera sector in Jammu Kashmir’s Rajouri district.
The Pakistani jets were forced to return after Indian Air Force jets launched counter operations, officials said.
Initial reports suggested that the Pakistani fighter jets were F-16s. There were reports of at least three fighter jets entering Nowshera.
News agency PTI quoted an unnamed official as saying, “The jets entered into Indian air space over Nowshera sector this morning.
” They were immediately pushed back by Indian jets on air patrol, PTI reported.
