Jammu And Kashmir: 4 Terrorists Killed In Kupwara As Security Forces Foil Infiltration Bid

Army and Police killed four terrorists in Kala Jungle of Machhal sector in Kupwara who were trying to infiltrate from Pak-occupied Jammu and Kashmir

In a joint operation, Army and Police killed four terrorists in Kala Jungle of Machhal sector in Kupwara who were trying to infiltrate from Pakistan-occupied Jammu & Kashmir (PoJK), the Jammu and Kashmir police said.

Kashmir Zone Police tweeted, “In a joint operation, Army and Police have killed four #terrorists in Kala Jungle of Machhal sector in #Kupwara who were trying to infiltrate to our side from POJK.”

The encounter comes around a week after another major infiltration bid at Jumgund Keran close to the Line of Control (LoC) in the Kupwara district was foiled by the security forces in a similar joint operation.

The General Officer Commanding, Vajra Division, Maj Gen Girish Kalia, in a press conference post-operation, said that there is a ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan. However, in the recent past, they (forces) have been getting a large number of intelligence inputs of likely infiltration from across the LoC, according to a report by Hindustan Times.

(This is a developing story. More details are awaited.)
