      Six soldiers injured in mine blast along LoC in Jammu and Kashmir

      At least six Army personnel sustained injuries following a mine blast along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Makri area of Bhawani sector, located in Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajouri district.

      Fortunately, all soldiers are reported to be in stable condition and are receiving treatment at the Army hospital in Rajouri.

      The incident occurred when the soldiers were on a routine patrol near Khamba Fort in Nowshera sector at approximately 10:45 am. One of the soldiers accidentally stepped on a landmine, triggering the explosion.

      The injured personnel were quickly transported to the hospital, and their injuries, though serious, were not life-threatening.

      The areas near the LoC are often equipped with landmines as part of an anti-infiltration obstacle system. These mines, however, can sometimes be displaced by rain, leading to accidents. This unfortunate incident underscores the inherent dangers soldiers face while operating in such volatile zones.

      The Indian Army has launched an investigation to understand the cause of the blast and to enhance safety measures for personnel serving in these high-risk regions.

      Recently, four soldiers were killed in a road accident in J&K’s Bandipora district when a vehicle skidded off the road and fell into a deep gorge due to bad weather and poor visibility. Two soldiers were injured in the incident.
