One India adds:

Longest surviving Hizbul terrorist among 3 killed near Amarnath Yatra route in J&K's Anantnag

Ashraf Molvi, one of the oldest surviving Hizbul Mujahideen
...Party of Holy Warriors, founded by Muhammad Ahsan Dar in September 1989. One of the Pak sock puppets waging jihad in Indian Kashmir. It was originally organized as the armed wing of Jamaat-e-Islami. In 1990, Dar declared Hizbul as the sword arm of Jamaat. Hizbul murdered many of the pro-independence intelligentsia in Kashmir. After the organization was taken over by Syed Salahuddin Dar and several other ex-Hizb leaders were assassinated between 2001 and 2003...

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....
's Pahalgam, a key route of the Amarnath yatra.

As far as I can tell, that's a 43 day Hindu pilgrimage to key shrines in Kashmir at the only time when the Amarnath cave is accessible. The trail starts at Pahalgam.

Based on specific input about the presence of ~~bandidos~~ Lions of Islam in Srichand Top forest area in Pahalgam area of Anantnag, security forces launched a cordon and search operation there.

The search operation turned into an encounter after the hiding ~~bandidos~~ Lions of Islam fired upon the security forces, who retaliated.

In the exchange of fire so far, three terrorist was killed.

The ultras belonged to the Hizbul Mujahideen outfit and their identity is being ascertained, he said.

In a tweet, the Kashmir Zone Police said, #AnantnagEncounterUpdate: 01 more #terrorist killed (Total 03). Retrieval and identification of the killed #~~bandidos~~ Lions of Islam yet to be done. Further details shall follow. .
