Srinagar/IBNS: Two terrorists, who attempted to infiltrate across the Line of Control (LoC), have been killed by the Indian Army in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district.

The security forces were on Wednesday engaged into a gunfight after the troops observed a suspected movement of two individuals.

Apart from the elimination of the two terrorists, three weapons have been recovered.

The White Knight Corps wrote on X, "In a successful anti-infiltration operation, alert troops of the #IndianArmy eliminated two terrorists attempting to infiltrate across the Line of Control. Swift action and accurate firepower thwarted the nefarious designs. Three weapons have been recovered.

"Synergistic and synchronised intelligence inputs from own intelligence units and #JKP led to a successful operation."

Earlier on July 28, all three terrorists who were involved in the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack were eliminated by the Indian Army in Operation Mahadev.

Three LeT terrorists including the mastermind of the Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 tourists dead were killed in the operation.

Indian security forces launched the anti-terror operation in the Lidwas area near Dara in Jammu and Kashmir amid reports of suspected terrorist movement in the region.

Confirming the same, Union Home Minister Amit Shah said, "I would like to share the details of Operation Mahadev, which took place yesterday. Three terrorists — Suleiman Shah, a top Lashkar-e-Taiba commander, along with Jibran and Hamza Afghani — were successfully eliminated. Suleiman was an ‘A’ category terrorist, deeply involved in the Pahalgam and Gagangir terror attacks.

"Our intelligence agencies have substantial evidence of his role. Both Hamza Afghani and Jibran were also classified as ‘A’ grade terrorists, posing a serious threat to national security."

Indian security forces launched the anti-terror operation in the Lidwas area near Dara in Jammu and Kashmir amid reports of suspected terrorist movement in the region.

"On May 22, we received confirmation of the presence of terrorists through sensors. Then, under the leadership of our 4 Para, the CRPF personnel and Jammu Kashmir personnel together carried out the task of surrounding the terrorists," he added.
