An encounter broke out between bandidos turbans and security forces in Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir
 ...a disputed territory lying between India and Pakistain. After partition, the Paks grabbed half of it and call it Azad (Free) Kashmir . The remainder they refer to as "Indian Occupied Kashmir". They have fought four wars with India over it, the score currently 4-0 in New Delhi's favor. After 72 years of this nonsense, India cut the Gordian knot in 2019, removing the area's special status, breaking off Ladakh as a separate state, and allowing people from other areas to settle (or in the case of the Pandits, to resettle) there....
on Friday morning, officials said.They said that the security forces launched a cordon and search operation in the Kesari area of Kandi Police Station following inputs about the presence of terrorists.
The bandidos turbans hiding in the area opened fire on the security forces who retaliated, leading to a shootout.
A heavy exchange of gunfire was on when this report was being filed.
Further details are awaited.
Five soldiers have been killed during an encounter with terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri.
An encounter had broken out between two to three terrorists and security forces on Friday morning in the Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir. The encounter took place in the Kandi forest, additional director general of police, Jammu Zone, Mukesh Singh confirmed.
Officials said that the terrorists belong to the same group that ambushed the Army truck on April 20 in which five soldiers were killed and one more injured.
That would make them Lashkar-e-Tayiba, as One India spells it, and tools of Pakistan’s ISI. A cordon and search operation was launched on the basis of specific inputs that the Indian Army had received from the Intelligence agencies. The Intelligence spoke about the specific presence of terrorists in the area.
"On specific information about the presence of terrorists in the Kandi forest in the Rajouri sector, a joint operation was launched. A search team established contact with a group of terrorists well entrenched in a cave. The area is thickly vegetated with rocky and steep cliffs," the Indian Army said in a statement.
As the joint team approached the spot, the terrorists who were hiding fired upon them, which was retaliated, following which the encounter was triggered.
As per reports, terrorists have been trapped in the area. There is a likelihood of casualties in the terrorist group as well. The terrorists are said to have triggered an explosive device in retaliation, which may have led to the casualties on the Army's side, an official also said.
Meanwhile mobile internet services have been suspended in Rajouri, the official also said.
The suspected rebels then triggered an bomb that killed two and injured four other soldiers, it said.
The statement added that two soldiers died in the attack and another three gave up the ghost later in the day.
