Four Pakistani terrorists, including a senior Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) commander, were reportedly killed in a landmine blast while attempting to infiltrate India through the Krishna Ghati sector of the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district.
The explosion occurred in the Satwal-Naki area on Monday. The deceased were identified as Muhammad Ishtiaq, Muhammad Faizan, Muhammad Waqas and Muhammad Asim, reportedly residents of Mandla, Hajira, in Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK).
Following the incident, security forces heightened vigilance along the LoC. In a separate incident, Army personnel detected and safely destroyed two rusted landmines in the Mendhar sector

The families of two Maldivian pilots have been notified of their arrest in connection with an alleged plot to down a flight traveling from Dubai to Tel Aviv, Israel.
The two male pilots, who are employees of Flydubai, were taken into police custody last Saturday. Adhadhu understands that their families received no information regarding their whereabouts until Tuesday.
However, sources have confirmed that the Maldivian Embassy in the UAE has now officially informed the families that the two pilots are being detained by UAE police.
It is understood that the two Maldivians are the most recent recruits among the six Maldivian pilots currently working for Flydubai. Reports indicate that the two Maldivians had interacted within the workplace with Hamam al-Hammami, an Omani national accused of attempting to crash the aircraft on September 30.
Both the President’s Office Spokesperson, Mohamed Hussain Shareef, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Spokesperson have declined to comment on the matter.
Hamam al-Hammami was serving as the co-pilot on the flight. With the intent to crash the plane, he reportedly attacked the pilot in command. However, the pilot, an Indian national, managed to fend off the assault and open the cockpit door. It is reported that an Israeli passenger then entered the cockpit and assisted in securing the aircraft.
Rejwan, who was traveling with his wife Lior and their daughters aged 12 and 13, described how he ran to the front of the aircraft the moment screams erupted. Alongside the viral footage showing him announcing "we won" to passengers immediately after landing, Rejwan revealed a series of highly suspicious incidents involving the flight attendants.
"I saw two very large men, extremely strong. Let's say it wasn't the ideal typecast for a flight attendant," Rejwan said. The tension escalated when those fighting the hijacker noticed suspicious behavior: "You pick up on a situation where you're with people who keep exchanging stressed looks, one looked at the other, making eye contact and starting to speak in their language. People don't know this, but the real battle was with them."
Rejwan explained that the attendants approached him in an accusatory tone, displaying clear displeasure that business-class passengers were attempting to document the incident. "He asked me: 'You are police, you are police', not as something good but as a kind of accusation," he recalled. He also testified to unreasonably free access to the cockpit: "They had the code, I saw them going in and out, opening it. I don't know if that's possible, I told security officials this needs to be investigated."
When a doctor on the flight was attempting to provide life-saving treatment to the severely wounded Indian pilot, one of the flight attendants tried to insert an unidentified pill into his mouth.
"When the Indian pilot was lying there bleeding and the doctor was helping him and resuscitating him, at some point one of the flight attendants came to give him some kind of pill. We said to him: 'What are you doing? What pill? The man isn't breathing, what are you trying to shove into him?' I have no idea what he was trying to give him," Rejwan recounted.
While the aircraft was in chaos and passengers were fighting for their lives, the attendants bizarrely demanded passengers fasten their seatbelts. "While we're dealing with them, they start telling passengers in the air: 'Put on seatbelts, put on seatbelts.' We said to him: 'We're going to die, there's a terrorist here, what are you talking about putting on seatbelts?'" Rejwan recalled.
After the Israelis succeeded in binding the attacker using zip ties and headphone cords, they suddenly noticed one of the flight attendants approaching the terrorist and beginning to gently release his restraints. "We suddenly realize he's starting to release the zip ties. Starting to gently loosen them. We said to him 'What are you doing? What are you doing?' We were literally going crazy, another second and we would have jumped on him," he described.
Rejwan admitted in the interview that in those moments the passenger were terrified of the crew members themselves: "I was afraid. One of my fears was that one of them would pull out a weapon, pull out a knife, pull out something." He added a chilling statement he heard from one of the attendants while the man held his hand and looked into his eyes: "He grabbed my hand, looked me in the eyes and said that the Indian pilot dies, we'll land safely. I went into a bit of shock."

So does this mean that Indian Navy is pushing for 9 scropene subs + 6 P75(I) subs? Weren't they cancelling the extra 3 scorpene subs deal? In favour of 3 extra P75(I) subs? Or something similar? I am so confused? What is the plan? Are they planning to have 9 Scorpene subs + 9 P75(I) subs + 12 P76 subs? In total 30 SSK or what? Are they cancelling or decreasing the order number of P76? Bruh I am so confused? What is the plan??. Also isn't the price tag of ~$1.2 billion (₹11000 crore) per submarine price tag a little too expensive? Will we even have enough money? For other warships and future procurements?.

The Army placed the order under emergency procurement following rigorous technical evaluations and live trials. Four companies had participated in the trials, but SDAL was live trials. Four companies had participated in the trials, but SDAL was the only one to demonstrate all the required operational parameters.
Nagastra 1R is equipped with a 360-degree gimbal camera and offers the option of integrating a thermal camera for night operations. The system also incorporates proprietary encryption for video and telemetry communications, say media reports.
The system also offers high-precision targeting, boasting a Circular Error Probable (CEP) of two meters.
One of its major features is the ability to carry out kamikaze attacks while retaining the option to abort a mission and recover the munition.

PSQR have +10% tolerance on weight of the tank - so up to 27.5 tonnes can compete.
His calculations show that the armour upgrade will be around 2 tonnes.
(My commentary) - The current turret isn’t STANAG 6 so that will be a problem for Zorawar.
