At least six Army personnel were injured on January 14, 2025, due to a landmine explosion in a forward village located in Rajouri district, Jammu and Kashmir.
The incident occurred around 10:45 AM when a soldier inadvertently triggered the landmine while on patrol near Khamba Fort in the Nowshera sector.
The injured soldiers were promptly transported to a hospital, where their condition is reported to be stable.
Officials highlighted that the area near the Line of Control is equipped with landmines as part of an anti-infiltration obstacle system. These landmines can sometimes be displaced by rainfall, leading to unfortunate accidents such as this one.
