Indian security forces and the National Security Guard (NSG) successfully neutralised a loitering munition launched by Pakistan near a village in Jammu.
The incident, which raised concerns over border security, was swiftly contained by bomb disposal squads, ensuring the safety of civilians in the area.
According to official sources, the drone-like munition was detected in the region, prompting a high-alert response from security personnel. Experts suggest that loitering munitions—often referred to as suicide drones—are designed to hover over targets before engaging in precision strikes.
Authorities are now investigating the source and intent behind the munition, as tensions between India and Pakistan remain heightened. The Indian defence establishment continues to bolster its counter-drone capabilities, ensuring swift action against similar threats.
Local residents expressed relief at the rapid response by security forces, emphasising the importance of advanced surveillance and defence measures along the sensitive border areas. Officials have reassured that necessary precautions are being taken to prevent future incidents.
