Control operations continue in spring breeding areas of Iran & Pak (Balochistan is a concern)
Luckily, for Pak, early migration of spring-bred swarms from Pak to Rajasthan occurred in May.
Some swarms continued to north Indian states (first time since 1962).

Forecast:
The swarms will oscillate east & westwards before returning to lay eggs during monsoon in Rajasthan where successive waves of swarms will arrive from Iran in June & the Horn of Africa in July... Crossing PAKISTAN (Balochistan, Punjab & Sindh)
