According to the notice, all types of leave—except in cases of emergency—may be curtailed without prior notice. Staff have also been asked to obtain approval before making any travel plans.

The hospital’s advisory comes amid heightened alert across several institutions following rising military tensions in the region. While routine operations at the hospital remain unaffected, authorities are taking precautionary steps to ensure workforce availability in case of any unforeseen medical emergencies.

The Ministry of Information and Broadcasting has issued strict directives to all OTT platforms, media streaming apps, and digital intermediaries to immediately take down any content originating from Pakistan. This includes web series, films, songs, podcasts, and any other digital media—whether available for free or through subscription.

The order has been enforced with immediate effect.

Citing concerns over national security and public sentiment, the ministry emphasized that no Pakistani digital content will be allowed to stream within India going forward. This decision follows heightened tensions between the two countries and strong responses from India following recent terror attacks and military operations.

Hospitality platform Go Homestays has announced the termination of its collaboration with Turkish Airlines, citing Türkiye’s recent expression of support for Pakistan amid escalating tensions with India. 

In an official statement issued on Thursday, the company said, “We are officially ending our partnership with Turkish Airlines due to their unsupportive stance towards India. Going forward, we will no longer include their flights in our international travel packages. Jai Hind”

The move comes in the wake of India’s Operation Sindoor, a military response to the Pahalgam terror attack. Türkiye had voiced concerns over the strikes, calling for restraint but also extending diplomatic support to Pakistan.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) is set to hold a high-level press briefing shortly, amid rising regional tensions following Operation Sindoor.

The briefing will be led by Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, alongside senior defence officials — Colonel Sofiya Qureshi and Wing Commander Vyomika Singh. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal will also be present.

Flight operations at Delhi airport were hit on Thursday as around 90 flights, including five international departures, were cancelled by various airlines.

The disruptions come amid the closure of nearly 27 airports across the country following India's military operation named Operation Sindoor. On Wednesday, the Indian Armed Forces carried out targeted strikes on terror camps located in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, in response to the deadly April attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed the lives of at least 26 civilians.

Authorities have tightened airspace control as a precaution, particularly around sensitive border zones, leading to major disruptions in commercial air traffic.

Following India’s precision strikes under Operation Sindoor targeting terror camps in Pakistan, the Kartarpur Sahib Corridor has been closed until further notice. The decision was announced by the Ministry of Home Affairs early this morning, citing heightened cross-border security risks.

Officials said the suspension of the visa-free corridor connecting India’s Dera Baba Nanak to Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan's Kartarpur was a necessary step in light of escalating tensions.

Security agencies had raised concerns about potential threats to Indian pilgrims amid Pakistani retaliation following the Indian Armed Forces’ airstrikes on terror infrastructure across the border.

In a strong counter-offensive under Operation Sindoor, the Indian Armed Forces struck back at Pakistan after the latter launched an unprovoked drone and missile assault targeting military assets in northern and western India.

According to a statement from the Ministry of Defence, Pakistan attempted to hit several Indian military installations on the night of May 7-8, 2025, using unmanned aerial systems and missiles. However, India’s Integrated Counter-UAS Grid and Air Defence systems successfully intercepted and neutralised all incoming threats.

Following the provocation, Indian forces targeted and destroyed multiple air defence radars and systems across locations in Pakistan, the ministry said.

The MoD also confirmed that Pakistan’s heavy and indiscriminate firing along the Line of Control resulted in the deaths of 16 innocent Indian civilians. In retaliation, Indian forces acted decisively to silence the hostile positions, the statement added.

Emphasising that the response was "focused, measured, and non-escalatory", the government underlined that India’s actions matched Pakistan's aggression in domain and intensity, without widening the conflict.

The strikes are part of Operation Sindoor, a strategic military initiative launched after the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, in which 26 civilians were killed by Pakistan-backed militants.

The European Union and its 27 member states have strongly condemned the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, calling it a “heinous” act and demanding that those responsible be brought to justice.

In an official statement, the EU said that terrorism can never be justified and that every state has the right and duty to protect its citizens lawfully. The attack, which claimed the lives of 26 innocent civilians, was claimed by a Pakistan-backed terror outfit and has since triggered heightened tensions in the region.

The EU also expressed deep concern over the growing hostilities between India and Pakistan, urging both countries to exercise restraint. “We are monitoring the situation closely and with great concern. The EU calls on both parties to de-escalate tensions and desist from further attacks to safeguard civilian lives on both sides,” the statement added.

In light of the recent Indian military strikes under ‘Operation Sindoor’ and Pakistan’s missile provocations, the EU has reiterated the need for dialogue over confrontation. “The EU urges both sides to engage in meaningful dialogue,” they said.

In a sharp escalation on Thursday, the Indian Armed Forces targeted multiple air defence radars and systems located across Pakistan, marking a significant response to the recent hostilities.

The Indian retaliation was carried out in the same domain and with equal intensity as the Pakistani aggression witnessed earlier. One of Pakistan’s air defence systems in Lahore has been successfully neutralised in the operation.

The strike is part of India’s continued military response under Operation Sindoor, aimed at dismantling terror infrastructure and responding proportionately to cross-border attacks. The action comes amid heightened tensions following missile and drone threats over Punjab, as well as earlier Pakistani shelling on civilian and religious sites in Jammu and Kashmir.

Abdul Rauf Azhar, the brother of Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) chief Masood Azhar, was among the 14 family members of the terrorist leader killed in recent Indian airstrikes under Operation Sindoor. His funeral took place yesterday in Bahawalpur, Pakistan, with key members of the Pakistan Army and the Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) reportedly in attendance.

Rauf Asgar was a top commander of JeM and had been a most-wanted terrorist in India. He was the mastermind behind several major terror attacks, including the 1999 IC-814 hijacking, the 2001 Indian Parliament attack, and the 2016 Pathankot airbase attack.

Security officials have confirmed that Rauf was targeted and killed in one of the precision strikes carried out by the Indian Air Force on Wednesday in Pakistan. The strikes were part of a retaliatory move following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, in which 26 civilians were killed by a Pakistan-backed group.
