Pakistani missiles target Indian locations, claim India media 

Pakistan launched attack on parts of Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday night.

Shortly before 9 pm, loud explosions were heard from the city followed by clamour of sirens and a blackout. 

Cellphone videos sent by locals show lights streaking across the sky, indicating interception of the missiles and drones by the Air Defence System of the Indian armed forces. 

While the border areas along the Line of Control and International border -- RS Pura, Arnia, Samba, Hiranagar -- are under heavy shelling, Jammu, the winter capital of Jammu and Kashmir, is facing air strikes. 

Cellphone services are down in parts of the city, increasing the tension for the locals trying to get in touch with friends and relatives.

Most of the border area of Jammu and Kashmir is now under blackout. 

Blackout has also been declared in Ferozepur and Gurudaspur in Punjab and parts of Rajasthan, another state that shares border with Pakistan.

Heavy shelling is already in progress at the International Border at Samba, Akhnoor, Rajouri and Reasi.
