Two Soldiers Injured in Landmine Explosion Near LoC in Jammu and KashmirPreviousNext

Two Army personnel were injured while attempting to defuse a landmine at Kanga Gali in the Mendhar sector of Poonch district, Jammu and Kashmir. The landmine, part of an anti-infiltration obstacle system, detonated on Wednesday evening. The injured soldiers were hospitalized. Officials noted that heavy rains can dislodge old landmines, causing hazards along the Line of Control. Additionally, a rusted unexploded hand grenade was recovered and safely destroyed in the nearby Nalwa Degwar Terwan area.
