Several explosions were reported near the port area of Karachi on Thursday evening, with unconfirmed reports suggesting missile strikes on key Pakistani naval bases.

Karachi Port Trust reported heavy damage after a strike. The strike is allegedly by the Indian Navy. This follows rising tensions and recent attacks on Indian territories. India has not yet released a statement.

Viral claims of an Indian Navy missile strike on Karachi Port, allegedly led by INS Vikrant, are misleading and based on misattributed footage and unverified reports.
