Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 30: Pakistan-controlled drones continue to prowl over border areas of Jammu province to drop arms and narcotics.
Within days after spotting a drone in the border belt of Samba district, security forces launched a massive search operation in several forward areas along the International Border (IB) in Kathua district following information about suspected drone activity.
Reports said that a search operation was launched after inhabitants of the border village of Talli in Marheen tehsil of Hiranagar spotted a drone hovering over border areas.
Earlier a comprehensive combing and search operation has launched in border areas of the Samba district following information about the intrusion of the Pakistan-controlled drone on this side of the International Border (IB) on September 18. Finding it difficult to smuggle arms to terror groups through infiltration, Pakistan has intensified its activities of supporting terrorists via drones controlled from across the border. During the last year, J&K Police have recovered some consignments of arms and narcotics dropped through drones from across the border. Recently J&K Police arrested a dreaded terrorist of Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM), who was transporting the arms, dropped through drones near International Border (IB), to Kashmir Valley in a truck.
Earlier BSF had recovered bombs dropped by a drone in the Samba sector. 14 Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) with in-built magnets could be used as sticky bombs by sticking them on vehicles and controlling them using a timer and a remotely held device.
Arms dropped by a drone operated from the Pakistani side were also recovered in Akhnoor some months back. |
