In Jammu & Kashmir, three terrorists were killed in the ongoing anti terrorist operation in Akhal Devsar area of South Kashmir’s Kulgam district, since last evening.
Police officials said the operation to neutralize the terrorists has been going on since late last evening. They said three unidentified terrorists have been killed in this encounter so far.
The exchange of fire is going on from both sides, while the entire area has been cordoned off and all entry and exit points have been sealed to prevent the fleeing of any terrorist inside the sealed area.
“Intermittent and intense fire fight continued through the night. Alert troops responded with calibrated fire and tightened the nooze while maintaining contact. One terrorist has been neutralised by the security forces so far. Operation continues,” Army’s Chinar Corps said in a post on X.
Security forces on Friday (August 1, 2025) evening engaged a group of hiding terrorists in a firefight in the jungles of south Kashmir’s Kulgam.
“An encounter has started at Akhal area of Kulgam (in south Kashmir). The police’s Special Operations Group (SOG), Army and CRPF are on job,” a police spokesman said.
This is the third encounter in J&K this week. Six terrorists were left killed in these encounters, including all the three involved in the Pahalgam terror attack.
