Two Pakistani Militants Eliminated, Five Security Personnel Injured in J&K Gunfight

Published

on

At least two Pakistani terrorists were killed during a confrontation with security forces in the Kathua district of Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday, amidst an ongoing operation in the area. The encounter resulted in injuries to five security personnel, including Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP) Dheeraj Katoch, with two of the injured reported to be in serious condition.

Officials noted that a significant anti-terror operation had been in progress for the last five days. DSP Katoch, who serves in the Special Operations Group (SOG), and his team sustained injuries during the firefight in Ghati Juthana, and they were promptly transported to a hospital for medical attention.

The conflict erupted when security forces detected the presence of terrorists in the Ghati Juthana area of Rajbagh, prompting further military support from the Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF). Senior officers from the Army, along with the Inspector General of Police (IGP) for Jammu and IGP of the CRPF, visited the scene to oversee the ongoing anti-terror efforts.

Additionally, drones and sniffer dogs have been deployed to locate the terrorists in the surrounding forested areas. It is believed that these terrorists are part of the same group that managed to escape after a previous encounter in the Hiranagar sector the previous Sunday.

The Kathua border district has recently seen a rise in terrorist activity, making it a significant infiltration route for militants from Pakistan. These terrorists often advance to the higher regions of the Udhampur, Doda, and Kishtwar districts before continuing into Kashmir.

Security forces have been conducting searches in the Hiranagar area for the past five days, and it is suspected that the terrorists may have moved towards Kathua town during that time. Intelligence reports indicated the presence of at least two groups of 5 to 6 terrorists that infiltrated on March 22.
A local woman collecting firewood reported sightings of approximately five heavily-armed terrorists taking refuge in a large nursery area near Saniyal village, located about five kilometers from the International Border with Pakistan.

During a search operation conducted on Tuesday, security forces discovered grenades, M-4 ammunition, and food supplies. The tracksuits found among the recovered items matched those worn by four Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) terrorists who were killed in encounters in the Assar forests and Doda last June and August.
