ISLAMABAD: Indian forces are using US-made drones for the surveillance of Pakistan along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Himalayan state of Kashmir.

The ‘spy drones’ with night-vision cameras took off flights from Poonch and Rajouri sectors whereas the data centre of these drones was established in Sri Nagar.
