Srinagar, Mar 5 (IBNS): An encounter is underway between suspected militants and security forces in Tral of south Kashmir’s Pulwama district, police said.

After receiving  inputs about the presence of some militants the army and SOG of Jammu and Kashmir Police laid a siege in  Hafoo Nazneenpora village Saturday evening.

As soon as they approached the suspected house, the militants hiding inside opened heavy fire, said the official.

The forces returned the fire, triggering an encounter.

Earlier forces called off operation in Shopian town after militants managed to escape from the encounter site.
