Srinagar, Aug 28: Two terrorists were killed on Thursday as the Army foiled an infiltration bid on the Line of Control (LoC) in the Gurez sector of Jammu and Kashmir’s Bandipora district.
Officials said that two terrorists were killed during the infiltration bid near Naushehra Nard in the Gurez sector.
“A search operation is now going on in the area,” officials said.
On August 25, joint forces foiled an infiltration bid on the LoC in the Uri sector of Baramulla. Terrorists had tried to infiltrate the Torna area of the Uri sector when troops deployed along the LoC detected suspicious movement.
The infiltrators were challenged, leading to a brief exchange of fire. A massive search operation was then launched in the area to ensure that no terrorist had managed to sneak into the Indian side of the LoC.
Earlier, on August 13, a soldier was killed in the Uri sector during a gunfight with the Army near the LoC when terrorists were trying to enter the Indian territory.
