An army jawan suffered a fracture in his foot in a landmine blast along LoC in Jammu and Kashmir's Pooch district.
"A soldier accidentally stepped on a drifted mine while on routine patrolling along the LoC in Mendhar sector, resulting in a blast last night," an army officer said today.
The mine had drifted due to rain. The soldier was wearing mine protected shoes, he said, adding that the soldier has suffered a heal fracture.
