Overview

• Officials report over 110 km of fencing affected, with roughly 80 km in Punjab and nearly 30 km in Jammu, and about 65 BSF posts inundated in Punjab and around 20 in Jammu.
• BSF has begun restoring fence lines and border outposts, maintaining security through drone reconnaissance, searchlights, boat patrols and electronic sensors as waters recede.
• Ravi River flooding swamped both sides of the zero line, leading Pakistan Rangers to vacate forward posts and impacting elevated observation points.
• Despite the disruption, BSF says it foiled multiple drug-smuggling attempts, seized heroin and caught a man who tried to swim toward Pakistan near the Pachharian outpost.
• BSF units report large-scale rescues including 1,500 people in Ferozepur and over 1,000 in Abohar, the Hussainiwala Beating the Retreat remains canceled, and one jawan drowned in Jammu earlier this week.
