In a remote area of Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district, a fierce gunfight broke out between the Army and terrorists on Saturday. Two soldiers lost their lives while three others sustained injuries in the encounter that took place in the Ahlan Gagarmandu forest in the Kokernag area.
It all started when the security forces received information about the presence of terrorists in the forest and launched a cordon and search operation. As the search teams approached the area, the terrorists hiding in the forest started firing indiscriminately, leading to a fierce exchange of gunfire.
According to officials, five army personnel were injured in the attack and were immediately rushed to a nearby hospital. Unfortunately, two of them could not survive their injuries. The area was immediately reinforced, and an intense operation was launched to track down and neutralize the terrorists.
In a statement, the Army's Srinagar-based Chinar Corps shared that the operation was based on specific intelligence inputs and was a joint effort by the Indian Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and Central Reserve Police Force. The statement also mentioned that two personnel were injured and were evacuated from the area.
The situation in the area is still tense, and the security forces are continuing their efforts to eliminate the terrorists. The incident serves as a reminder of the constant threat that our brave soldiers face in their efforts to keep our country safe. Our thoughts and prayers go out to the families of the soldiers who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty.
