Police believe three or four terrorists are trapped in the Keshwan area of Kishtwar.
Earlier today, another encounter erupted in the Zabarwan forest on the outskirts of Srinagar. A joint operation by police and security forces was launched based on intelligence about the presence of terrorists. An exchange of fire followed, with the operation ongoing.
Yesterday, a terrorist was killed in an encounter in Baramullah district. Security forces and state police launched a joint operation in Rajpura after observing suspicious activity. The encounter erupted after the terrorists opened fire at the forces. The Indian Army’s Chinar Corps confirmed the neutralization of one terrorist in the ongoing operation.
