Indian Army eliminated five Pakistani Soldiers along with terrorists who were trying to infiltrate across the LOC in Jammu and Kashmir’s Keran sector. The attempt was carried out by Pak Army’s BAT (Border action team ) who were trying to escort terrorists for successful infiltration.
An army source in Saturday confirmed, “In the last 36 hours, a number of attempts by Pakistanis have tried to disturb the peace in the valley and target the Amarnath yatra. A BAT attempt was made on one of the forward posts in Keran sector and foiled by alert troops resulting in neutralising of 5 to 7 Pak regulars/terrorists.” The Indian Army’s Northern Command stated that these activities by Pak, establishes Pak’s complicity to terror activities and disrupt peace in Jammu and Kashmir. Security forces will continue to respond to all nefarious activities along the LoC and hinterland.
It also added that, four Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) terrorists were killed in the valley in the last 24 hours. A cache of sniper rifle, IEDs and mines with Pakistani Ordnance Factory (POF) markings have been recovered.
They alleged that in Last 36 hours, Pakistan has desperately attempted to revive terrorism and push terrorists from JeM and other organisations. And sources also said the response by security forces vindicates the build up in the hinterland.
