Jammu: Attack or Diversion

On the night of 27 June, 2 drones attack the Jammu Airforce Station. The next day whole nation was in the state of shock and grief as 2 airforce personnels were injured and at the same time all praised the response of IAF as they managed to avert a much bigger disaster on that night. The target of those drones were definitely the squadrons of the airforce which were present there. Airforce is that branch of the armed forces which holds maximum strategic assets, which generally have the capability to change the course of the war single handedly. These bases are always on the hit list of our adversaries. They use terrorist groups to target such installation.

Now the question arises who must have targeted our AFS (Air Force Station)?

In my opinion I don't think it's Pakistan. Ofcourse their land was used to launch the drones & Brigade Headquarters would have taken the lead but that doesn't mean Pak would have taken the initiative as Pak knows that retaliation would be very harsh like Balakot or even attack on airforce installation can escalate a conflict to war. Now the only country which can fund such attack is China as we all know Pak is a puppet state of China & since China & India are in a state if skirmish so possibilities are high that China must have done this. If China is behind this then it indicated that they might start another Galwan like skirmish but this time it can happen in Arunachal Pradesh & Jammu attack was just a distraction. Since the Jammu attack exposed our vulnerability to drones so we might witness these types of attacks in other parts of India too & this distraction might result in increased terror activities in Kashmir. Now it's high time we should act fast and hope we could avoid such incidents in future by procuring anti drone systems from other nations like Israel or by developing our own system.
