J&K: Security Forces Eliminate Two Pakistani Terrorists In J&K's Poonch District; Arrest An Associate

In a positive development, the security forces in the Union Territory (UT) of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) yesterday (13 December) eliminated two Pakistani terrorists in the UT's Poonch district's Poshana area, reports Hindustan Times.

The police shared that the duo had infiltrated into Indian territory by sneaking through the Line of Control (LoC) recently. While eliminating the two the forces also nabbed their associate at Chatta Pani near Poshana.

It should be noted that the security forces had reached the area on Friday (11 December) itself, however, they could not carry out the operation at the time owing to heavy snowfall and unfavourable weather conditions. As a result, the operation was finally carried out on Sunday.

This comes on the day when India observed the 19th anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attack on the Parliament which was executed by Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM).
