Security Forces Neutralise Terrorists In Kashmir's Soura Area

In a major development, security forces have neutralized two suspected terrorists in an encounter that took place in the Soura area of Srinagar on Thursday. The encounter, which began late on Wednesday night, is the first major incident of its kind in Srinagar in over two years.

According to reports, the encounter began after security forces received intelligence about the presence of terrorists in the area. A joint team of the Indian Army, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) cordoned off the area and launched a search operation.

As the security forces moved in, the terrorists opened fire, triggering an encounter. The exchange of fire lasted for several hours, with security forces using tear gas and stun grenades to flush out the terrorists.

In the ensuing gunfight, two suspected terrorists were killed. Their identities are yet to be ascertained. The security forces also recovered a cache of arms and ammunition from the encounter site.

The encounter is a major success for the security forces, as it comes at a time when the terrorist activities have been on the rise in the Kashmir Valley. The incident is also significant as it is the first major encounter in Srinagar in over two years.

The security forces have been on high alert in the wake of the recent attacks in the Valley. The encounter in Soura is a testament to their commitment to maintaining law and order in the region.
