Two terrorists were killed on Wednesday night in a joint operation by security forces in Udhampur’s Majalta forest, nestled in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. The identities of the deceased have yet to be confirmed by officials. The encounter took place during an ongoing anti-terror operation in a forested region of Udhampur district on Thursday, the officials revealed.
Reports of suspicious movement in the Khubban/Brettal-Sowan belt prompted security forces to initiate a joint search operation comprising the Army, police, and CRPF around 9 pm in the remote Bratel Soan and Khubban areas of Majalta. Shortly after the operation commenced, a few rounds of firing and blasts were heard, allegedly executed by the security forces while targeting a suspected hideout.
However, the area remained eerily quiet throughout the night until early morning on Thursday when the terrorists resorted to heavy fire to break the cordon. Reinforcements were swiftly deployed to the area to neutralize the terrorists.
