Aljazeera reported that on May 8, the Pakistan army announced that it had shot down 25 Indian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that violated airspace.
The move comes amid escalating tensions between the two nuclear-owned countries after India launched multiple airstrikes on different targets in Pakistan.
Pakistan military spokesman Major General Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry said that the UAV used by India in the air breakthrough was identified as an Israeli-made Harop, which attacked the Karachi and Lahore areas.
Chaudhry said India would pay a heavy price if it continued to carry out this aggressive act. Meanwhile, according to the Pakistan military, the airstrike killed one person and injured four other soldiers.
India said the country's military had "dilapidated" Pakistan's efforts to "attack" several military targets in northern and western regions on May 7 and early morning of May 8 (local time).
The Indian Ministry of National Defense said that the country had targeted air defense systems at many locations in Pakistan, and confirmed that 16 people were killed but it was due to fire from Pakistan.
The incident on May 7 came a day after India announced it had launched precision strikes against so-called terrorist infrastructure inside Pakistan. Islamabad said the airstrikes killed at least 31 civilians.
New Delhi's operation follows a bloody attack in the Kashmir region controlled by India two weeks ago, killing 26 people. India has accused Pakistan of being behind the incident - an accusation Islamabad has strongly denied.
