Encounter Erupts in Udhampur’s Basantgarh: Security Forces Engage Terrorists in Fierce Gunfight

2 militants killed 2 soldiers injured in sopore gunfight

Udhampur: An intense encounter broke out on Wednesday between security forces and terrorists in the upper reaches of Basantgarh, Udhampur district of Jammu and Kashmir, officials reported.

The clash occurred when troops from the Army’s elite 1st Para unit, along with police personnel, launched a search operation at Khandara Top following intelligence reports indicating the presence of terrorists in the area. The terrorists, who had been hiding in the dense forest, opened fire on the approaching search teams around 12:50 PM, triggering a retaliatory response from the security forces.

In response to the escalating situation, additional reinforcements have been dispatched to the forested area to neutralize the remaining terrorists. The operation is ongoing, with security forces maintaining a strong presence to ensure the safety of the region.
