Fresh Drone Sightings in J&K Prompt Army Fire and High Alert

The Army has put Pakistan on notice over UAV intrusions, opening probes into possible contraband drops.

Overview

  • Defence sources reported two new drone sightings in the Jammu sector on Thursday, triggering counter‑UAS measures.
  • Security forces fired at a drone‑like object over Degwar in Poonch, and a sighting near Keso Mahansan in the Ramgarh sector led to a high alert.
  • Officials said recent objects entered from across the border, hovered over sensitive areas, then returned toward Pakistan.
  • This marks the third drone episode in recent days, following at least five movements earlier in Samba, Rajouri and Poonch.
  • Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi said Pakistan has been put on notice as Operation Sindoor continues, with ground searches and investigations underway.
