Barmer District in Rajasthan has been placed under a high red alert as tensions between India and Pakistan intensify in the wake of Operation Sindoor.
District Collector Tina Dabi has issued an urgent directive for all residents to remain indoors, with immediate restrictions on public movement and market activities to ensure civilian safety. "Everyone is directed to go to their house. There is a high red alert in the district. Don't go out in markets or public places," the Barmer DC said. Earlier this morning, fragments and debris of unidentified projectiles were recovered by the locals in Rajasthan's Barmer in the wake of Pakistan's blatant drone attacks against civilians across several locations in India. Residents of Baldev Nagar, an area near Uttarlai Air Force Station and Jalipa Military Station in Barmer, witnessed the aftermath of the Pakistani attack that was successfully neutralised by Indian security forces in the early hours of the morning. However, the authorities haven't confirmed the identification of the debris. According to the locals of the area, around 5:15 to 5:30 in the morning, loud sounds were heard coming from the sky, prompting them to remain vigilant, and soon after, they discovered projectile debris in the area. Fragments and debris of an unidentified projectile were also recovered from a field in Mughlani Kot Village in Punjab's Amritsar on Saturday morning. Speaking on the incident, Sarpanch of the village Gursahib Singh said that the incident happened at around five in the morning; however, no one was injured due to the falling debris. "It happened at 5 am; afterwards, I came to know about the blast...no no one is injured," he said. Meanwhile, four airbases in Pakistan were hit by Indian strikes in the early hours of today, sources told ANI, as tensions between the two countries continue to escalate. India launched the retaliatory strikes immediately after Pakistan attacked 26 locations across India, the sources said. Intermittent firing is still going on at several places along the Line of Control (LoC). (ANI)
