BBC BREAKING NOW

Gunmen have attacked an Indian air force base near the border with Pakistan, officials say.

Gunfire is being heard from inside the Pathankot air force base and army commando units and helicopters have been called in.

Early reports suggest at least four gunmen were involved and at least one of them has been killed.

Officials say a hijacked police car was used in the attack and the gunmen were wearing Indian army uniforms.

The incident comes just days after the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani counterpart, Nawaz Sharif, met in Lahore to launch a surprise peace initiative.

In August seven people were killed when gunmen stormed a police stationin nearby Gurdaspur district.

The three attackers in Gurdaspur were killed after a 12-hour standoff with police.

Quite a concerning development

Pakistan itself have delt with Terrorism attacks as such its concerning the attacks are becoming more organized and more elaborate

However , we can't speculate

Stealing a officer's car and then wearing offical army kits sounds quite familiar tactic used against Pakistani base , and specially late evening hours

Western media at work , describing terrorists as gunmen for India. Well even Indian news agencies have to start calling french attackers simply as men having fun with guns or disturbed ppl.

Here are the 10 main developments:

1. The terrorists entered the air base, located 50 kilometers from the border with Pakistan and 200 kilometers from state capital Chandigarh, wearing military uniform. They reportedly used an official vehicle.
2. Firing began around 3:30 am and is still believed to be underway.
3. Sources say the terrorists have been contained in a "non-operational" area of the facility. The area where fighter aircraft and helicopters are kept is safe, officials have said.
4. The incident is believed to be connected to the hijacking of a police car a day ago.
5. The National Security Guard or the NSG has been called in for help.
6. Helicopters have also been dispatched to the area for assistance, senior police officials have said.
7. The attack is suspected to have been carried out by the terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM). Sources say the attackers were asked to destroy assets at the air base.
8. According to official sources, Intelligence inputs had warned of a possible terror attack at the base yesterday, following which the National Security Advisor held an urgent meeting with senior officials. The air chief and all concerned officers were also informed.
9. Following the alert, security was increased in the area. The NSG was alerted and additional police forces from Jammu and Kashmir were asked to be on standby.
10. The attack comes six months after another terror strike in Punjab's Gurdaspur, when three terrorists equipped with grenades and AK-47s opened fire in Dinanagar killing three civilians. The terrorists were shot dead after a 12-hour long gunbattle.

Well the 6 crew could have taken up few helicopters as these are relatively easy to fly or destroy planes/helicopters

What kind of planes / helicopters were stationed at the location I doubt anyone can fly a fighter jet

 

[Ankit Kumar]
