Indian Army Foils LoC Infiltration in Poonch, Kills Intruder

The action underscores tighter surveillance along vulnerable stretches of the Line of Control.

Overview

  • White Knight Corps troops, which detected movement Tuesday around 4 pm inside Indian territory in the Krishna Ghati sector of Poonch, challenged the infiltrators and killed one intruder.
  • The Army said the attempt originated from Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and reported no breach of the Line of Control after the engagement.
  • Officials retrieved the body near the LoC on Wednesday and handed it to police for legal procedures.
  • Search and sanitisation operations continue, with drones and other sensors scanning the area as troops maintain a high level of readiness to confirm no one slipped through.
  • The LoC is the de facto border between India and Pakistan in Jammu and Kashmir, and recent months have seen multiple infiltration bids in nearby sectors, prompting tighter patrols that affect daily life in frontier villages.
