In a shocking escalation of digital warfare, Pakistani cyber attackers have successfully infiltrated and defaced hundreds of Indian websites, including government portals, news platforms, and educational institutions. Indian cybersecurity experts have termed this the “largest coordinated cyber offensive from Pakistan” in recent years.

According to multiple Indian news agencies and independent cybersecurity watchdogs:
