Amidst heightened tensions along the Line of Control (LoC), the Indian Army has responded strongly to ceasefire violations by Pakistani troops, particularly highlighting their inept use of foreign-made drones. The incidents occurred on the night of May 7-8, triggering immediate and decisive retaliation by the Indian forces.

According to reports, the initial provocation came from the Pakistani side, who violated the ceasefire agreement. The Indian Army swiftly analyzed the enemy's firing patterns and retaliated effectively, destroying Pakistani bunkers and launch pads, and inflicting heavy casualties. Frustrated by their inability to respond effectively to the Indian Army's fire, Pakistani troops resorted to targeting civilian areas.

In addition to targeting civilian areas, Pakistani forces also deployed drones. However, according to an Indian Army soldier, these drones were acquired from another country, and the Pakistani troops lacked the necessary training to operate them effectively. The Indian Army successfully detected and destroyed these drones, further adding to the setbacks suffered by the Pakistani side.

The Indian Army's response involved the use of Medium Machine Guns (MMGs) to target Pakistani forward posts, causing significant damage. This action was part of "Operation Sindoor," initiated following a terror attack in Pahalgam on May 7, which resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians. Operation Sindoor is described as a calibrated, tri-services response demonstrating precision and professionalism.

An Indian Army Lieutenant stated that after Pakistan initiated unprovoked artillery fire, the Indian side retaliated, using Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs) to destroy Pakistani posts. Approximately 10-12 posts in the Poonch area were reportedly destroyed. The Lieutenant also noted that after failing to hit military posts, the Pakistani forces began firing on civilian areas, prompting an even stronger response from the Indian side, who then targeted and destroyed Pakistani ammunition storage facilities.

The effective retaliation and the destruction of Pakistani drones have boosted the morale of Indian forces stationed along the LoC. The fencing along the LoC remains heavily guarded, with Indian troops maintaining high vigilance. The destruction of bunkers, launch pads, and ammunition storage has significantly hampered Pakistan's ability to mount further attacks. The Indian Army has conveyed a clear message that any further provocations will be met with an even stronger response.

The incident highlights the ongoing tensions and the importance of maintaining a strong and prepared defense along the LoC. The Indian Army's swift and decisive actions, coupled with the inability of Pakistani troops to effectively utilize their equipment, have resulted in a clear tactical advantage for the Indian side.
