Two soldiers were killed in action in a suspected improvised explosive device (IED) attack by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir’s Akhnoor sector today, the Indian Army said.<\/p>\n
In a post on X, the army’s White Knight Corps confirmed the casualties.<\/p>\n
“White Knight Corps salutes and pays tribute to the supreme sacrifice of two gallant soldiers,” the army said.<\/p>\n
The IED attack came while the soldiers were on a “fence patrol” along the Line of Control (LoC).<\/p>\n
“Own troops are dominating the area and search operations are underway,” the army said.<\/p>\n

Yesterday, a soldier was critically injured by gunfire along the LoC in Rajouri district. The soldier was at a forward post in the Kalal area of the Nowshera sector when a bullet hit him.<\/p>\n
He was immediately taken to a military hospital, officials said. They said preliminary information revealed the fire came from across the LoC around 2.40 pm.<\/p>\n
On February 8, an army patrol was fired upon from a forest across the LoC in the Keri sector by terrorists, apparently waiting for an opportunity to cross the LoC.<\/p>\n
Indian troops fired in retaliation and subsequently, the anti-infiltration grid was strengthened to keep a tight vigil in the area.<\/p>\n
