India partially left without electricity due to cyberattacks from Pakistan.


Cyberattack from Pakistan: Indian cities left without power
A large-scale power outage occurred in several states of India, which the Pakistani authorities consider to be the result of a cyberattack. According to reports from The Indian Express and The Times of India, Pakistani hackers were able to disable up to 70% of the Indian power grid.
The Pakistani authorities stated: 'through hacker actions, they were able to disable up to 70% of the Indian power grid.'
According to data in the field of railway security, such attacks are aimed at critical infrastructure and can lead to a serious energy crisis in the region. The incident occurred against the backdrop of escalating relations between the countries.
Power supply was completely cut off in Jammu and Kashmir, as well as in the city of Jalandhar, where drones of likely Pakistani origin were recorded. The Indian side has not yet commented on this information, while local media report general anxiety among the authorities and the population.
Airspace closed: missile strikes and Pakistan's response
In connection with the conflict with Pakistan, India temporarily closed its airspace for civil aviation, including international flights until midnight on May 10. Pakistan is also taking appropriate measures to ensure the security of its airspace and border areas.
India decided to carry out missile strikes on Pakistani military positions, leading to a sharp increase in tensions between the countries.
In response, Pakistan launched an operation called 'Bunyan ul Marsus', which translates as 'Unbreakable Wall'. This step is considered by Islamabad to be a response to provocations from the neighboring country. Explosions occurred in the cities of Amritsar and Jammu, and Pakistani forces reported strikes on Indian military facilities.
Both countries continue to mobilize their forces and prepare for a possible escalation of the conflict.
