Pakistan’s air defence system shot down a dozen Indian drones overnight, as one attacked a military target near the eastern city of Lahore, causing damage and wounding soldiers, officials said.

It follows Indian missile strikes on Pakistani locations that killed 31 civilians a day earlier, including women and children, according to officials.
