PUNJAB
A drone which flew into
India from Pakistan was shot down by the
Border Security Force (BSF) along the
international border in Punjab, an official
spokesperson said on Monday.
The unmanned aerial vehicle was intercepted
and fired upon by the troops around 7:40 pm
Sunday in an area falling under the
territorial limits of Rajatal village in Amritsar,
they said.
The quadcopter was recovered from a field
near the border fence and a search is on to
check if it dropped any consignment in the
area, the BSF spokesperson said.
At least three such Pakistani drones were shot
down by the border force last week in Punjab.
