Security forces on Friday recovered a cache of arms and ammunition in Jammu and Kashmir’s Samba district, officials said. Acting on a tip-off, police and army carried out a search operation in Sarthian border hamlet, they said.
During the search, army and police officials recovered two pistols, five magazines, and 122 ammunition rounds in a gunny bag, they said. The bag of arms was possibly dropped by a drone from across the border. However, the probe is underway, they said.
Security forces also recovered two wireless communication sets, batteries, and some torches during an operation that was launched near a sheep farm in the Balnoi area of the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir.
