Twenty persons including 11 security forces personnel and a civilian were killed in separate attacks.
Eight militants were also killed during the day in different parts of the Kashmir Valley.
Earlier in the day, Omar said the attack on the Army camp in Uri, which left 11 security forces personnel including an army officer dead, was a desperate attempt to disrupt peace and normalcy.
"Once again shows the desperate levels militants will go to disrupt peace and normalcy," Omar said.
