In Poonch district, flipside drone-like object was seen moving from Tain towards Topa in the Mankote sector near the LoC at 6:25 pm.
What weapons did the security forces recover?
Earlier, on Friday night, security forces recovered a enshroud of weapons dropped by a drone that came from Pakistan in Palura village of Ghagwal near the verge in Samba district. They said the recovery included two pistols, three magazines, 16 rounds, and a grenade. It is worth noting that several drones from Pakistan had moreover entered Indian territory in May. India retaliated and thwarted their plans. The Indian Army launched Operation Sindoor in response to the Pahalgam terrorist attack, and a major mismatch ensued between the two countries for four days. Following this, a armistice was well-set upon between the two nations.
