To aid in the operation, special forces were brought in by an Indian Air Force helicopter. In addition, night-enabled quadcopters, unmanned aerial vehicles, and sniffer dogs were employed, as informed by Lt Col Suneel Bartwal, the Jammu-based Army spokesman.

In a recent advisory, the police have urged residents to avoid visiting the area and to maintain a safe distance of at least 2 kilometres outside its periphery.
