On late Friday night, terrorists attempted to infiltrate into India from Pakistan near the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir. The attempt was foiled by the Indian army, and a junior commissioned officer killed in the line of duty during a counter-infiltration operation. Now, a video released by the Army shows the movement of the terrorists near the LoC.<\/p>\n

The footage, captured by thermal cameras installed for better surveillance of the highly sensitive border areas, showed three terrorists attempting to cross into India through a dense forest in the Keri-Bhattal area of the Akhnoor sector.<\/p>\n

The troops picked up the movement of a group of heavily armed near a stream in a forward forest setting, which led to a fierce gunfight.<\/p>\n

Subedar Kuldeep Chand<\/a> was injured in the encounter and later died of his injuries. The whole area was cordoned off with the deployment of reinforcements.<\/p>\n

Two terrorists have also been killed today in an ongoing operation, while one was gunned down the day before.<\/p>\n

In the same area on February 11, two Army personnel, including a captain, were killed and another was injured when terrorists set off an Improvised Explosive Device (IED).<\/p>\n

The latest incident comes two days after India and Pakistan held a brigade commander-level flag meeting in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district to discuss issues related to border management.<\/p>\n

This was the second such meeting since February in an effort to de-escalate tension after nearly a dozen incidents of cross-border firing and an IED attack.<\/p>\n
