Indian Army Destroys Pak Post Near Jammu Used For Tube Drone Launch

Indian forces have destroyed several Pakistani military posts and a terror launchpad in retaliation as Pakistan continued to escalate the situation, sources said. The launchpad destroyed in the Indian strikes was used to launch tube-launched drones, they added.

The retaliation followed a coordinated wave of drone attacks from Islamabad targeting military infrastructure at 26 locations from Leh in the north to Sir Creek in the south.

Pakistan also continued overnight shelling across the border. A blackout was enforced in Kupwara. The shelling claimed the life of a senior official in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri. He died after a shell hit his house, confirmed Chief Minister Omar Abdullah.
