Srinagar: In a significant operation, the Indian Army successfully eliminated two terrorists attempting to infiltrate across the Line of Control in Keran Sector of Jammu and Kashmir.

On 17 July, a credible input was received from Jammu and Kashmir Police (J&KP), further corroborated by intelligence agencies, regarding a group of foreign terrorists likely to infiltrate through Keran Sector.

On 18 July at approx. 1230h, alert troops observed movement of two terrorists through thick foliage, on their own side of LoC. The infiltrating terrorists were challenged, following which they opened fire leading to an intense fire fight. Two hard core foreign terrorists were killed along with recovery of weapons, war like stores and a Pakistani identity card.

This successful intelligence-based Operation Kachhal is yet another example of the close synergy between the Indian Army, Border Security Force (BSF) & J&KP. This was the third such successful anti infiltration operation on the Line of Control over the last few weeks and underscores the Indian Army’s unwavering commitment to maintain the sanctity of the Line of Control and the robust counter infiltration posture towards maintaining peace in Kashmir valley.
