J&K: Gunbattles rages in Kupwara
SRINAGAR [Maha Media]: A gunbattle is underway between militants and security forces in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kupwara district, officials said on Tuesday. This is the eighth gunbattle in Kashmir in nearly two weeks.
The latest encounter erupted at Nagmarg Kupwara, close to the Line of Control, when joint forces were combing the area following an input about militant movement. "As the suspects were challenged, they opened fire, triggering an encounter,” officials said, adding that the operation is underway. Additional forces have been rushed to the area to ensure a tight cordon of the area. This is the fifth encounter in north Kashmir districts in the past ten days. In earlier four encounters, five militants believed to be foreigners were killed.
