Two terrorists were killed in a joint counter-terrorism operation in the Brattal area of Jammu and Kashmir’s Udhampur district, the Army said on Thursday.
The operation was launched during the intervening night of September 16 and 17 following confirmed intelligence inputs about the presence of terrorists in the area, according to the Army.
Troops of the Jammu and Kashmir Police and the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) conducted the operation despite difficult weather conditions, challenging terrain and poor visibility.
The Army said the operation was continuing, with search and surveillance activities underway in the area.
“Security forces remain deployed to track and neutralise any remaining threat,” it said.
Further details were awaited as the operation continued.
