The class of drones that General Anil Chauhan (retd) described is the same documented in the Ukraine-Russia war, and the West Asia conflict.

Former CDS Anil Chauhan suggests loitering munition may have struck Kirana Hills during Operation Sindoor, near Pakistan's nuclear facilities.

The Indian military had said in May 2025 that while it had struck a nearby airbase, the hills, reported to have a nuclear installation, were not targeted.
