 "Raid alert sirens in Amritsar, Pakistan again attempts to target religious site")
As India retaliated against Pakistan following Islamabad’s multiple failed drone attacks in the western and northern border cities, a red alert has been issued once again in Amritsar. Sirens may sound at any moment, and residents have been advised to stay indoors, DC Amritsar said.
“You may hear the siren now, we are under red alert. You are all requested to remain indoors and stay away from windows. We will inform you as soon as it is safe to resume normal activities. Please stay calm and do not panic,” said the Deputy Commissioner of Amritsar.
The red alert comes shortly after a green alert was issued at 6 am.
Army shot down multiple drones in Amritsar
Earlier, the Indian Army successfully shot down multiple drones flying over Khasa Cantt in Amritsar, Punjab, at around 5 am on Saturday. This marks yet another blatant act of aggression by Pakistan, which was effectively thwarted by Indian forces.
“Pakistan’s blatant escalation through drone strikes and other munitions continues along our western borders. In one such incident, at approximately 5 am today, multiple enemy armed drones were spotted over Khasa Cantt in Amritsar. The hostile drones were immediately engaged and neutralised by our air defence units,” the Indian Army said.

This development follows Indian strikes on at least four airbases in Pakistan early Saturday, ANI reported, citing sources, as tensions between the two countries continue to escalate.
According to government sources quoted by News18, Pakistan launched a Fatah-2 missile towards Delhi, which was successfully intercepted in Sirsa. If confirmed, the failed strike would mark a significant setback for Pakistan’s air capabilities.
Meanwhile, several Indian drones were reportedly seen hovering over Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Sialkot, Lahore, and Peshawar.
The conflict intensified on Friday night and continued into the early hours of Saturday, when India launched retaliatory strikes targeting Islamabad, Lahore, and Rawalpindi, along with three major Pakistani Air Force bases, defence sources told News18. Multiple explosions were reported — two in Rawalpindi and one each in Lahore and Islamabad.
