Based on information regarding infiltration and movement of terrorists in the
area, Army had launched extensive search operations with effect from June 29.
On July 8, a search and destroy patrol spotted the terrorists in the Dadal
forest area, and challenged them. The terrorists opened fire and lobbed hand
grenades leading to a fierce encounter in which two terrorists from Pakistan
were killed.
In another operation, one terrorist got killed while trying to enter the
Indian Territory in Naoshera Sector along the Line of Control on July 07. He
was part of a group that was tasked to carry out a major terror strike on the
death anniversary of Hizbul Commander Burhan Wani but was averted timely.
Earlier on Wednesday, forces eliminated one of the top and oldest commanders
of the Hizbul Mujahideen. According to reports, the encounter had taken place
in Jammu and Kashmir's Handwara which led to forces to eliminate, Mehrazuddin
Halwai, who was the oldest and top commander of the terrorist group.
