The Air Force used the Advanced Counter UAV System (CUAS) to neutralise Pakistan's drone. How does an Advanced counter-UAV system work?
The Advanced Counter UAV System included jammers, soft kill, hard kill, Pechora, SAMAR, and air defence guns. The Air Force monitored the drone's activities, route, and map with the help of the Integrated Command and Control Center. For your information, the Indian Air Force responded to this threat in a restrained manner, which is why India did not suffer any major damage. Due to the Advanced Counter UAV System, many of Pakistan's missiles and drones were destroyed.
It is designed to detect, track, and neutralise hostile drones, especially in sensitive areas like borders or military zones. A look at the steps: The radar systems detect the movement of drones in the airspace.
Infrared and visual cameras help in tracking drones, especially at night or in low visibility conditions.
Once a drone is detected, it's important to determine whether it's a threat or not. This involves analysing its flight pattern and size.
Jamming involves sending interference signals to disrupt the drone's communication with its operator, causing it to lose control or return to its base.
Advanced counter-UAV systems are integrated into broader defence networks for coordinated responses and real-time updates.
India deployed advanced counter-UAV systems to intercept and neutralise incoming drones from Pakistan. These systems played a crucial role in protecting sensitive areas and preventing potential threats.

Negotiations bear fruit, Yemen defers Nimisha's execution
Kochi: The execution of Nimisha Priya, the Keralite nurse on death row at the central prison in Yemen's capital Sana'a for the murder of a Yemeni national, has been postponed following intervention by Indian authorities and religious leaders. Negotiations were underway to save the life of Nimisha, hailing from Kollengode in Palakkad, after her execution was scheduled for July 16, Wednesday. "The execution has been postponed until the prison authorities are notified of a new date," stated an order issued by the public prosecution of the Republic of Yemen. It also said the postponement was based on a directive from their attorney general. The development will give additional time for Nimisha's family to negotiate a mutually agreeable solution. A trial court had sentenced Nimisha to death in 2018, and the verdict was later upheld by an appeals court. She was convicted of murdering Talal Abdo Mahdi, with whom she started a health clinic in Sana'a and later reportedly entered into a marriage, in July 2017. She was accused of chopping his body and dumping its parts in a water tank. Mahdi allegedly tortured Nimisha and illegally seized her passport, which led to the murder. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Forget Furosemide, Use This Household Item To Help Drain Edema Fluid WellnessGuide Learn more Undo Besides the Save Nimisha Priya International Action Council, many religious leaders and social organisations had stepped in to save her. Sunni leader Kanthapuram A P Aboobacker Musaliyar, who holds the title of Grand Mufti of India, reached out to prominent Yemeni Islamic scholar Sheikh Habib Omar, seeking his help to persuade Mahdi's family to accept blood money and grant pardon to her. Subhash Chandran of the action council told TOI that Musaliyar's intervention played a major role in the decision to postpone the execution. "Apart from a preliminary discussion with Talal's brother held on Monday, a second round of discussion was held on Tuesday. We are hopeful of progress in discussions in the coming days," he said. Musaliyar said Muslim scholars could hold talks with the judges and Mahdi's family members, and the negotiations would continue in the following days. The talks are being held based on Sharia law, which gives the victim's family the legal right to pardon the convict, either without any condition or in exchange for blood money, he said, adding that the PM's Office was informed about his initiative. Samuel Jerome of the Save Nimisha Priya International Action Council, who is coordinating the negotiation talks in Yemen, said he met Yemen's foreign minister on Tuesday after the execution was postponed. Nimisha's husband Tomy Thomas expressed his gratitude to officials and religious leaders for their intervention in the matter. CM Pinarayi Vijayan described the development as a relief and lauded the efforts of Musaliyar and the action council in the decision. Earlier on Monday, the attorney general of India stated in Supreme Court that the Union govt was making every possible effort to help Nimisha and talks were progressing with Yemeni authorities to secure a suspension of the execution order until negotiations could be pursued.

Govt nominees on Hindustan Zinc board may quiz management on Vedanta tomorrow
New Delhi: Government nominees on the Hindustan Zinc Ltd (HZL) board will likely quiz the management on the company's dealings with its promoter Vedanta Ltd and other related parties at the next board meeting on July 17, people aware of the development said. The government had a 27.92% stake in HZL while Anil Agarwal-controlled Vedanta Ltd held 61.84% as of June 30. "The idea (behind asking fresh questions to the HZL management) is not to doubt the company's financial position or cast aspersions but to be reassured of its corporate governance practices and other financial and operational aspects," one of the persons cited above told ET. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Exclusive McAfee Discount Ends Soon McAfee Shop Now The move comes in the aftermath of short-seller Viceroy Research accusing Vedanta's parent entity Vedanta Resources this month of being a "parasite" running a "ponzi scheme" that has "pushed the entire group to the brink of insolvency." Vedanta has called the claims a "false propaganda" based on information already available in the public domain and asserted that "the authors have tried to sensationalise the context to profiteer from market reaction." Live Events The US-based short-seller has also questioned HZL's payment of about Rs 1,560 crore in "brand and strategic services" fees to Vedanta, adding that this was without commercial justification. In response to ET's queries, an HZL spokesperson said "'Vedanta' is a prominent global brand in the natural resources sector and the brand is a registered intellectual property of Vedanta Resources. Vedanta Ltd, HZL and other group companies use the brand under a brand license/sub-license agreement and pay a board-approved brand and strategic services fee for its usage." "This structure reflects a standard intercompany licensing model used globally by diversified groups and is fully compliant with Indian accounting, tax and governance regulations, and follows internationally accepted practices," the spokesperson added. Asked if the company intends to explain its stance on the Viceroy Research report to the government nominees in the July 17 board meeting, the spokesperson said as a policy, the company "does not disclose the agenda or discussion points of upcoming board meetings." "Outcomes of such meetings, as required, will be communicated through appropriate channels post conclusion." Another person said nominees of minority shareholders asking questions at a company's board meeting on emerging issues is a legitimate practice and "there is no reason why the government wouldn't do that." The HZL board has three government nominated directors.
