Alert issued near LoC

An alert has been issued near the Line of Control (LoC) after seeing an object flying in the Mendhar sector of Poonch, a mountainous district of Jammu and Kashmir, on Sunday morning. According to sources, the suspect was probably a drone and the army fired shots at it. SDPO Z A Jaffrey of Mendhar said a special operation by the army and police was underway in the area.

In the past, Pakistan has repeatedly tried to disarm drones in the Samba sector on the international border. Pakistani drones also entered Indian territory on Friday evening. On which BSF vigilantes opened fire.

Pakistan is already trying to take advantage of the geographical conditions of the Samba sector. Pakistan's focus is on the Jammu and Kashmir National Highway and the maritime route that helps in concealing the theft.

Twice drones were also seen near Samba's Bani Nalla. Weapons were also seized from the Rasa area once. Weapons have also been recovered from Samba's Basantar sea.
