Perhaps Euphorbia maddenii

Referring to a part of description of Euphorbia maddenii in Flora of Pakistan.
… Cyathia shortly pedunculate. Glands semilunar, truncate on the outer edge and with 2 slender horns in length equalling the width of the gland; glands greenish at first, later brownish, horns pale straw-coloured. Fruit roundly trilobate, 2.5 x 2.5-3 mm, smooth, pale green. Styles spreading, united at the base, 0.7 mm long, bifid.
Putting here a cropped version from one of the photos; clearly can see the semilunar green glands, the 2 slender pale straw-coloured horns
Am strongly convinced of … thought of Euphorbia maddenii.
Hoping to receive validating comment(s) … not sure if such glands and horns are found in any other close species.

Similar glands are also met in a few other species but they are distinct: E. maddenii uploaded by … is a much delicate plant and actually E. peplus; E. prolifera has habit and leaves looking much similar to E. wallichii; E. dracunculoides has linear leaves, a plant of a plant of tropical plains.

For sake of clarity, …, would distinct imply this posted plant to be E. maddenii ?

Euphorbia maddenii as per another thread.

Yes … Thank you very very much for this effort to update this post with the ID.
