Various fragments and pieces of unidentified debris were also recovered from the Lasjan area of Jammu and Kashmir's Srinagar on Saturday morning.
Visuals from the incident spot showcase that the debris was found between a cluster of houses. The local residents narrowly escaped from the situation. According to a local resident, Ashraf, an explosion was heard at around 05:45 am. He spotted a blast in the air, after which he found out fragments of unidentified debris scattered in various parts of the house. He contacted the local head, after which the police arrived at the spot and recovered the fragments.
Meanwhile, heavy cross-border shelling by Pakistan caused damage to homes and religious sites in J&K's Kupwara, Uri, and Poonch. Locals vowed to stand with the Indian Army despite the attacks. Houses and properties in Uri have also been severely damaged in the shelling, which targeted civilian areas.
In Poonch, houses and water tanks in civilian areas suffered extensive damage. Balbir Singh, a resident in Poonch, said, "The entire house is damaged. The adjacent houses have also suffered damage...Pakistan is targeting civilian areas...They are deliberately targeting Poonch...Gurdwara, temples and mosques - they have not spared anything...This is all the nefarious design of Pakistan that it is targeting civilians...People are scared but they have the spirit that they will continue to live here and stand with the Indian Army."
"We were uprooted in 1947 and then came to live here. A massive firing is ongoing now. We will not leave Poonch and go anywhere else. We will stand shoulder to shoulder with the Army and Administration. They may bomb us as much as they want, we will not be scared," he told ANI. (ANI)
