One terrorist has been killed and a policeman has been injured in a gunfight between the terrorists and security forces in South Kashmir’s Kulgam district. The encounter took place at Hoowra village after police and security personnel received information about the presence of terrorists in the area.
The armed group began firing when the security forces surrounded the area, leading to a retaliation from the security forces. Officials confirmed one local terrorist was neutralised during the firefight.
The authorities have recovered arms, ammunition and incriminating materials from the area. The officials are continuing to identify the terrorist and his affiliation.
Over the past few months, there have been many encounters between terrorists and security forces in the Kashmir region. Security forces have carried out successful operations against the militants, resulting in the elimination of many terrorists from the area.
To ensure the safety of citizens, security measures are being regularly reinforced by the Indian government.
The injured policeman has been hospitalised and is in a stable condition. The authorities are investigating the incident and further details are expected to emerge in the coming days.
The continued efforts of the security forces have helped rid Kashmir of many militants, but the fight against terrorism in the region is far from over. The Indian government has shown its commitment to ending terrorism in Kashmir and keeping its citizens safe.
