This incident is part of a larger pattern of increased terrorist activities in the region. Jammu and Kashmir have seen a rise in such encounters recently. Just last month, security forces successfully neutralized three terrorists in the Gandoh area of district Doda. These operations underscore the persistent threat posed by terrorist elements in the region and the relentless efforts of security forces to counteract this menace.
The injured security personnel have been evacuated to a nearby medical facility for treatment. Their condition is being monitored, and they are receiving the best possible care. The security forces remain vigilant and committed to ensuring the safety and security of the region’s residents.
