Srinagar : One terrorist was killed and a policeman was injured in an encounter between terrorists and security forces at Hoowra village in South Kashmir’s Kulgam district, officials said on Tuesday.
“One local terrorist neutralised. Identification and affiliation being ascertained. Incriminating materials including arms and ammunition recovered. Search going on,” officials said.
The firefight started after a joint team of police and security forces got an input about the presence of terrorists in the area.
After security forces cordoned off the area, terrorists hiding there started firing drawing retaliation from the security forces.
There have been a series of encounters between terrorists and security forces across Kashmir in the recent past in which many terrorists have been eliminated.
