Kashmir: Three heavily armed terrorists gunned down by army

Srinagar, Sept 10: While Jammu and Kashmir is grappling with severe flood, army forces gunned down three heavily armed terrorists in an encounter in the Keran sector along the Line of Control. The encounter happened in the early hours of Wednesday the Army said.

It seems the terror organisations are trying to cash in on the flood situation. The flood has destroyed several border outposts and border fencing, rising security concerns. Many army columns are engaged in the rescue operations.

According to IANS, a Lashkar-e-Toiba terrorist from Pakistan was gunned down by forces of the Indian Army along with the state police in a village of Kupwara district on Tuesday. "The damage is quite severe both in terms of fence and infrastructure. All our posts and infrastructure are damaged," Colonel Pradeep Semwal, Commanding Officer of the Akhnoor unit, was quoted as saying by NDTV.
