Pakistan’s Cyber Strike: 70% of Indian Power Grid dysfunctional

In the early hours of Saturday, Pakistan reportedly launched a significant cyberattack that rendered 70% of India’s power grid dysfunctional, according to security sources. This major disruption came as part of Pakistan’s broader military response under “Operation Bunyan ul Marsoos”, which was initiated in retaliation for what Islamabad describes as “continuous Indian provocations.”

As part of the ongoing counter-offensive, security officials revealed that “Pakistan has successfully destroyed the storage facility of the BrahMos missile in Beas, from where missiles were launched at Pakistan.” The BrahMos missile site was considered a critical asset in India’s offensive capabilities.

The operation, led by the Pakistan Armed Forces, is targeting several key Indian military sites. “Multiple strategic targets across India are being engaged as part of the operation,” the sources added, indicating a widening scope of the military action.

Additionally, “The Udhampur Air Base — a major operational site — and the airfield in Pathankot have also been heavily hit,” confirming significant damage to Indian air defense infrastructure.

This escalation follows intense cross-border tensions, with both sides exchanging strikes and Pakistan now taking the offensive through cyber warfare and precision military targeting.
