Terrorist killed in gunfight in Jammu & Kashmir’s Pulwama
A newly recruited local Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist was killed in an encounter with security forces in the Pulwama of Jammu and Kashmir
Pulwama: A newly recruited local Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist was killed in an encounter with security forces in the Pulwama district of Jammu and Kashmir, said officials.
“In an ongoing encounter one terrorist has been neutralised. Search operation continues,” police said.
The gunfight started on Thursday after a joint team of police and security forces got an input about the presence of terrorists in that area.
After security forces cordoned off the area, terrorists hiding there started firing, drawing retaliation by the security forces.
There have been a series of encounters between the terrorists and security forces across Kashmir in the recent past in which many terrorists have been eliminated.
