“Blackout in Jammu now. Sirens can be heard across the city,” he wrote, followed shortly by another update: “Intermittent sounds of blasts, probably heavy artillery, can now be heard from where I am.”
His statements came amid explosion sounds heard in Samba as India's air defence intercepted Pakistani drones.
