Two Terrorists Killed in Kupwara, High Alert Along J&K Borders
Security forces neutralized two terrorists during an anti-infiltration operation in the Machhal sector of Jammu and Kashmir's Kupwara district on Monday evening.
The successful operation comes as Union Home Minister Amit Shah directed security agencies to maintain a high state of alert along the borders to thwart infiltration attempts with the onset of winter.

The encounter began after a joint operation was launched by the Indian Army and the Jammu and Kashmir Police based on "specific intelligence input... regarding a likely infiltration attempt," according to an official statement from the Indian Army.
Alert troops detected suspicious movement near the Line of Control (LoC) and challenged the individuals. "The terrorists opened indiscriminate fire. Troops responded with effective fire, neutralising two terrorists," the statement added. A large cache of weapons and other war-like stores were recovered from the location.
Meanwhile, in New Delhi, the broader security landscape of the union territory was reviewed in a high-level meeting chaired by Home Minister Amit Shah. Concerned that terrorists may exploit harsh weather and heavy snowfall for cover, Shah instructed security forces to "remain on high alert" along the LoC and the International Border.
The top-level security assessment was attended by Jammu and Kashmir Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha, Chief of Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi, Union Home Secretary Ajay Kumar Bhalla, and the directors general of the Intelligence Bureau and various Central Armed Police Forces (CAPFs), underscoring the seriousness of the directive.
The back-to-back developments highlight the continued focus of the security establishment on preventing cross-border terrorism in the Kashmir valley as the winter season approaches.
