In a valiant rescue effort, the Indian Army saved seven individuals, including women and children, from precarious danger in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district. The group found themselves stranded on a patch of land following flash floods on Tuesday, according to officials.

Operating with precision and urgency, a specially trained Army rescue team responded to the crisis at Lower Kuniyan. The civilians were caught on an island in the Poonch river after unexpected heavy rains swelled the waters, reported the Jammu-based PRO Defence.

The timely intervention, characterized by the Army's renowned bravery and compassionate spirit, not only averted a looming disaster but also provided reassurance to the local community of the military's commitment to safeguard them in emergencies.
