Deadly Remnants of Conflict

Following a recent bout of unprovoked shelling from across the border, Indian Army engineers launched a routine post-shelling sweep in forward areas. During the operation, troops discovered several unexploded mortar shells and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), likely fired by Pakistani forces but which failed to detonate.

“Unexploded ordnance (UXO) poses a grave risk to troops and civilians alike,” said a senior Indian Army official on the ground. “These remnants are silent killers. Neutralizing them safely is a priority.”

High-Risk Disposal Captured Live

In a rare media access operation, India Today cameras were allowed to accompany the Army’s Bomb Disposal Unit (BDU) as they carried out the high-risk task of defusing and destroying the ammunition. Clad in protective gear, the soldiers secured a perimeter, dug out the devices, and used controlled explosions to destroy them safely.

The operation was conducted under strict protocols to prevent accidental detonation. The resulting explosion sent smoke and debris high into the air, captured vividly by India Today’s cameras — a chilling reminder of the constant threat along the LoC.

Pakistan’s Role Under Scrutiny

The incident has once again raised questions about Pakistan’s commitment to the ceasefire and border stability. Defence experts suggest the usage of heavy mortar and RPGs from across the border is indicative of deliberate escalation tactics by Pakistan’s forward units.
