In the wee hours of 05 April, own ambushes close to Line of Control spotted a group of terrorists moving towards the Line of Control. Own forces continuously tracked the hostile movement and established contact resulting in heavy exchange of fire. While the operation was under progress, intermittent fire was also drawn from Pakistan forward posts, in vicinity of line of control.
The operation resulted in neutralisation of Two Terrorists and recovery of Two AK Rifles, Three Magazines, Four Hand Grenades, Ammunition and other war-like stores.
The infiltration bid by terrorists indicates desperation on part of Pakistan to fuel unrest in peaceful Kashmir Valley at a time when general elections have been scheduled and the democratic process is unfolding.
This operation is a testimony to the synergy between various Security and Intelligence agencies who are committed to ensure peace and tranquillity in Kashmir.
