Suspected Pak Drones Noticed at 3 Locations in J&K’s Samba

Date:

Jammu, Jul 30: Suspected Pakistani drones were spotted hovering over three different locations in Samba district of Jammu and Kashmir, officials said on Thursday.

The flying objects were sighted simultaneously over Bari-Brahmana, Chiladya and Gagwal areas around 8.30 pm on Thursday, the officials said.

The latest sightings were recorded nearly a week after police shot down a Pakistani drone carrying five-kg Improvised Explosive Device (IED) material in the border belt of Kanachak near here.

The officials said Border SecurityForce (BSF) personnel fired a couple of rounds towards one of the drones in Chiladya before it returned to the Pakistani side.

The other two drones disappeared from the sky shortly after hovering over sensitive securityinstallations at Bari Brahmana and along Jammu-Pathankot highway in Gagwal, the officials said.

Police along with other securityforces have rushed to the sites for thorough search, the officials said, adding further details are awaited.—(PTI)
