Gujarat’s Kutch, Banaskantha, Patan, and Jamnagar districts share border with Pakistan.
The development came after India successfully retaliated to Pakistan’s escalated hostilities as it opened air strikes and drone attacks in several border areas of Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Rajasthan on Thursday evening, marking a significant escalation a day after India struck terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.
There was a blackout situation in Jammu, Srinagar, Udhampur, Baramulla, Pathankot, Chandigarh, Gurdaspur, Amritsar, Jalandhar, Barmer, and Jaisalmer on Thursday night after Pakistan attempted to target several areas in India.
Pakistan once again early Friday morning resorted to heavy shelling along the Line of Control (LoC). Several houses were damaged in Uri and Chowkibal Kupwara, while one woman was reportedly killed in Uri.
