BSF Establishes Drone Squadron to Guard India-Pakistan Border
Imagine India's border guards, the BSF, are getting a new team of flying robots called drones to watch over the border with Pakistan.
These drones will help the BSF see what's happening and protect against any threats from the other side.
This decision was made after they saw how drones were used in a recent operation.
The BSF will have special people to operate and manage these drones from a central control room, and they are also making their defenses stronger to protect against attacks.
The goal is to keep the border safe.
BSF is establishing its first drone squadron to enhance border surveillance.
This is in response to cross-border UAV threats, particularly after Operation Sindoor.
The squadron will include various UAVs for reconnaissance, surveillance, and potential attack.
A central control room in Chandigarh will coordinate the squadron's operations.
Personnel are being trained, and defenses are being hardened along the border.
