Rawalpindi: Pakistan army downs an Indian drone at LOC for crossing into Pakistani airspace.
An Indian ‘spy drone’ along the Line of Control (LOC) was shot down after it crossed into Pakistani airspace.
“Indian Quadcopter Airspace Violation in Sankh Sector along LOC today. In this provocative act, Indian quadcopter intruded 600 meters inside Pakistan’s territory for conducting surveillance. This blatant act was aggressively responded to by Pakistan Army troops shooting down Indian quadcopter,” read the statement issued by Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
According to ISPR, Indian forces have resorted to such tactics on multiple occasions which in-fact are an explicit violation of ceasefire agreement agreed between the two countries in 2003.
Earlier in January 2019, Pakistani troops had shot another spy quadcopter in Bagh sector along the LOC.
