The drone was purportedly retrieved by the pakistan Army.
 
It was 9:30 am yesterday, when the incident happened. According to sources, the incident happened when the army drone was on a normal surveillance mission.
 
To rectify the issue, the indian army is expected to hold discussions at the director General of Military Operations (DGMO) level with the pakistan Army.

The incident occurred two days after an IAF fighter aircraft experienced a technical issue that led to the unintentional discharge of "air store" close to the Pokhran firing range in the jaisalmer area of Rajasthan, according to authorities.
 
Officials stated that the object that was discharged was a practice bomb that was meant to be dropped on pre-designated locations during bombing exercises. According to them, the practice bomb detonated in an open area, resulting in an explosion and a crater at the impact location close to the Pakistani border.
 
There were no recorded injuries or property damages. The reason of the technological problem that resulted in the unintentional release of the air storage was investigated.
 
In fighter jets, any extra gear or cargo that may be fastened to the aircraft for a variety of tasks is referred to as an air store.
