It is coincident that exactly one year back, an explosive-laden drone was shot down in the same year on July 23, 2021 The Jammu and Kashmir Police had averted a cross-border terror plot by shooting down a drone carrying improvised explosive device (IED) material weighing five kg in the same year on July 23, 2021. The drone was carrying a payload of five-kg IED material in a semi-assembled state and only wires had to be connected to it to trigger a blast. According to a preliminary analysis, the flying object was a hexa m-copter with six wings and had a GPS device and a flight controller. Terror groups like Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) and the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) are using drones for terror attacks and smuggling weapons to their operatives on this side of the border. Last week, J&K police had busted three LeT modules arresting seven of its members and recovering a huge cache of arms, ammunition, and explosive material reportedly dropped by 20 drone sorties from Pakistan. |
