Anantnag: A day after the killing of an Army Colonel, Major and a Deputy Superintendent of Police (DySP) , the exchange of fire between security forces and terrorists continued for second straight day in Gadool forest area of Kokernag hamlet in South Kashmir’s Anantnag district on Thursday with army pressing in new generation weapons and devices to track down the terrorists, officials said.

An official told KNO that intermittent exchange of fire between forces and the hiding terrorists remained on throughout the day as the operation was put on a halt given darkness.

“There is no confirmation whether any terrorist has been killed so far given the tough terrain and forest area,” the official said. “Given dark, high beam lights have been installed and all the layers of cordon have been tightened to ensure terrorists don’t flee.”

However, Police said that forces have encircled two Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorists including Uzair Khan a local militant at Gadool area of Kokernag. On Wednesday, a Colonel, Major and a DySP of J&K Police were killed in the first assault by the terrorists.

“In solemn tribute to the unwavering valor of Col Manpreet Singh,Major Ashish Dhonak &DySP Humayun Bhat, who laid down their lives leading from the front during this ongoing operation. Our forces persist with unwavering resolve as they encircle 2 LET terrorists including Uzair Khan,” Police said in a post on ‘X’, formerly known as Twitter.

Meanwhile, defence sources told KNO that GoC 15 Corps and GoC Victor Force were closely monitoring the operations. Army said that the “terrorists will not be spared and all new generation weapons and devices are being used to locate them.”

They said that drones including herons have been pressed into action to find and neutralize the hiding terrorists. (KNO)
