2-3 armed personnel crossed LoC and attacked forward post, says Army on Kupwara encounter

 Army on Saturday said that two to three armed personnel crossed the Line of Control (LoC) and attacked on a forward post from “close proximity” in Machhal sector of northern Kupwara district.

 

“Taking advantage of bad weather and poor visibility along Line of Control in Machhal Sector, a group of two to three armed personnel crossed the LC and fired on a forward Army post from close proximity,” said the Srinagar-based Defence spokesman, in a statement“Alert troops responded vigorously and in the ensuing exchange of fire one Pakistani intruder has been killed along with recovery of weapons, ammunition and war like stores. Identification and affiliation of this Pakistani National is being ascertained,” he said.During this intense fire exchange, two of our brave soldiers also suffered some grave injuries and were hence immediately evacuated to the Base Hospital at Srinagar.“Unfortunately, one of these bravehearts has succumbed to his injuries. The other brave is responding well to treatment and care and is presently stable,” he added.

“In the past too, similar attempts by infiltrators, actively aided and abetted by Pakistani Army have exploited thick foliage and poor visibility conditions but have always, as today, been successfully thwarted and disrupted.”

“Indian Army is firm in its resolve and commitment to maintain the sanctity of the Line of Control and defeat the nefarious and inimical designs of the Pakistan Army.”
