A potential disaster was averted in Jaisalmer when a live bomb, believed to have been dropped by a Pakistani drone during the recent military flare-up following India's ' Operation Sindoor ', was successfully neutralised by the Army's bomb disposal squad on Monday.
The explosive device, weighing around 5 kg, was discovered in the morning behind a Food Corporation of India warehouse nearly 10 km from Jaisalmer city. The bomb was concealed in bushes, slightly off the main road.
Locals in the border area, who continue to be on high alert even after the cessation of fighting, immediately notified the district administration and police, prompting a swift response. Military personnel were quickly dispatched to the scene, and the area was secured.
