A suspected improvised explosive device (IED) explosion rocked a forward village along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Krishna Ghati sector of Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district on Monday (October 12, 2026), triggering heightened security measures, officials said.

The powerful blast reportedly occurred in the Satwal-Naki area near the zero line, during the movement of a group of people along the Pakistan side of the LoC, officials said.

They said casualties were reported, but the exact number of people killed or injured was not known immediately.
