On the one hand, two militants, including a Lashkar commander, were killed in two clashes with the forces in the suburbs of Srinagar. On the other hand, a Pakistani infiltrator was shot dead by BSF while crossing the international border in Arnia. All in all, the situation in Jammu and Kashmir seems to be heating up.
Today, the forces surrounded the Harwan area of Shalimar Bagh in Srinagar. Jammu and Kashmir Police IG Vijay Kumar said Lashkar commander Selim Pare was killed in a clash with security forces there. He is a resident of Hajin in Bandipora. In 2016, Selim joined the militant group. Half an hour later, clashes broke out again in the Gasu area of Shalimar Bagh.
Vijay Kumar said that Pakistani militant Hafiz alias Hamza was killed there. He was involved in the killing of two policemen in Bandipora. On the other hand, a Pakistani infiltrator was shot dead in Jammu’s Arnia sector this morning, the BSF said.
The BSF also recovered a white bag near the Chamliyal outpost on the international border last night. Three AK rifles, five magazines, four pistols, seven magazines, and five packets of heroin were recovered from him.
