The standoff between India and Pakistan continues for a fourth straight day. Under the cover of darkness on Friday (May 9), Islamabad once again resorted to a drone and missile attack, targeting 26 sites across India.
In turn, New Delhi retaliated to the series of drone and missile attacks by Pakistan, with Islamabad reporting that three of its airbases, Nur Khan base, Mureed base, and Shorkot, had been attacked. There were also reports that blasts were heard at Rawalpindi, Pakistan’s military headquarters.
Amidst the escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, the White House said that US President Donald Trump wants India and Pakistan to “de-escalate” and Secretary of State Rubio is in constant communication with the leaders of both countries.
