In Jammu and Kashmir, Army troops opened fire to bring down a Pakistani drone which entered into the Indian side from across the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district early today. Akashvani Jammu Correspondent reports that the drone returned to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) after hovering briefly over an area near the border fence in the Mendhar sector of Poonch district. The troops picked up the movement of the drone around 1 AM and fired nearly a dozen rounds. A search operation was launched with the first light of the day to ensure there was no airdropping of weapons or narcotics by the drone. The search operation was continuing when the last reports were received. More details are awaited.
