Pakistan Drone Enters Indian Side Along LoC In J-K's Poonch, Army Opens Fire

Early Sunday morning, Indian Army personnel engaged a Pakistani drone that had crossed the Line of Control (LoC) into Indian territory in the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir. The incident highlights ongoing tensions along the border, where drone incursions have become increasingly common. Officials confirmed that the army opened fire in an attempt to neutralize the threat posed by the unauthorized aerial vehicle. The infiltration of drones from Pakistan into Indian airspace raises concerns regarding security and surveillance in the sensitive region, which has a long history of conflict. Both nations have accused each other of violating ceasefire agreements, and such incidents further complicate the diplomatic landscape. The Indian Army has reiterated its commitment to safeguarding the territorial integrity of the nation, employing all necessary measures to counter threats from across the border. The situation remains under close monitoring as further developments unfold.
