Third infiltration attempt foiled in three days on LoC
Today was the third infiltration attempt foiled by security forces on the LoC in different areas of Jammu and Kashmir. Two attempts were earlier foiled in the Nowshera sector of the Rajouri district.
While foiling the infiltration attempt in the Jhangar area of the Nowshera sector Indian Army captured a Pakistani terrorist alive near the LoC. The captured terrorist was on a suicidal mission.
In the second operation, on the night of 22/ 23 August 2022, alert troops were able to observe the terrorists as they crossed the LoC and continuously monitored this movement. As they moved ahead into our minefields a series of mines got activated and two terrorists got eliminated on the spot.
