Jammu Tawi: 03 Sep 2021
On the intervening night of 2nd and 3rd September 2021, a group of heavily-armed Pakistani terrorists attempted to infiltrate in Poonch sector (J&K). The infiltration attempt of Pakistani terrorists was detected by alert troops of the Indian Army. The infiltrators were challenged and heavy firing ensued. Owing to undulating terrain and heavy undergrowth, the terrorists managed to break contact and escaped back towards Pakistan Occupied Jammu and Kashmir under the cover of darkness. A thorough search of the encounter site was carried out and a huge quantity of administrative stores left behind by the terrorists was recovered to include clothing, packaged food items and medicines with Pakistani markings. Indian Army maintains a determined resolve to thwart any infiltration attempts or nefarious designs by anti-national elements.
