Terrorist Gunned Down In Jammu, 2 Militants Killed So Far In Ongoing Operation
2024-10-30
It’s been a while since we checked out India — it looks like it’s business as usual in Jammu.
[OneIndia] A terrorist hiding in a village in the Akhnoor sector of the Jammu region was killed during a fresh shootout that erupted on Tuesday morning as security forces launched their final assault against faceless myrmidons holed up in the area, officials said.

So far, two forces of Evil have been killed and efforts are on to neutralize their third associate still hiding in the forest area near the Assan temple in Jogwan village, they said.

One of the three forces of Evil who fired at an army ambulance that was part of a convoy moving near the Line of Control (LoC) on Monday morning was killed by the evening in an operation launched by the special forces and NSG commandos. After a night-long lull, the security forces pushed for a final assault against the holed-up forces of Evil around 7 am in the Bhattal Area of Khour, leading to a fresh shootout, officials said.

A couple of deafening explosions followed by intense firing continued for over an hour before the second terrorist was killed, the officials said, adding intermittent exchange of fire was going on with the third trapped ultra.

A four-year-old valiant Army dog, Phantom, died after being hit by a bullet during the operation. In a first, the Army has also pressed its four BMP-II infantry combat vehicles for surveillance and strengthening the cordon around the attack site, while helicopters and drones were also deployed to locate the hiding terrorists.
