The visiting dignitary also appreciated Pakistan’s positive role for regional peace and stability.

The Pakistan Army on Saturday shot down an Indian spy drone over the Line of Control (LoC), said a statement released by the military’s media wing.

The drone was brought down in the Rakhchikri sector of the heavily militarised zone after it intruded 150 metres into Pakistani territory.

Tensions escalated dramatically between Pakistan and India on February 14 when a young man – a native of Indian occupied Kashmir (IoK) – rammed an explosives-laden car into an Indian military convoy, killing at least 44 soldiers.
