Amid the escalating global tensions, the Indian Army has thwarted multiple Pakistani drone intrusion attempts in Jammu and Kashmir in the Poonch district, along the Line of Control (LoC). This happens after a rapidly evolving situation in West Asia.

As reported by news agency ANI, the situation in West Asia has escalated significantly as of March 1, 2026, following a joint military strike by the US and Israel against Iranian leadership and military targets.
