Indian naval warships have successfully carried out anti-ship firings revalidating readiness for long-range precision strikes, officials said on Sunday (April 27, 2025).

The firing drills came amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan over the Pahalgam terror attack.

“Indian Navy stands combat ready credible and future ready in safeguarding the nation’s maritime interests anytime anywhere anyhow,” he added.
