On June 8, Army troops opened fire at a Pakistani drone after it intruded into Indian territory in the Poonch District of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), but it returned to Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK) after briefly hovering over some forward Indian posts, reports Kashmir Images and First Post. They said Indian Army troops fired around nine rounds at the drone, but failed to hit the target as it was flying at a considerable height. Security forces launched a search operation on June 9 to ascertain whether the drone had carried out any airdropping during its flight over the area. The operation continued for several hours, with security personnel conducting an extensive search of the area. However, nothing suspicious was found on the ground, the officials said.
