Three neat ops claim 10 militants in 24 hrs

JAMMU: Having fought a dwindling ratio of security personnel to militants killed in 2016 and three and half months of this year, the Army is in a clearly aggressive mood which is indicated by killing of ten militants in two days.
Three operations since yesterday -two on the Line of Control and one in South Kashmir in which a prized catch was claimed -have been clean as no loss have occurred to Army and other security forces. The Army today said its relentless operations to thwart attempts by Pakistan to boost terror activities in Kashmir have borne fruit, resulting in the deaths of ten militants since yesterday.
"Relentless operations by security forces have defeated desperate attempts by Pakistan and Pakistan-sponsored agents to spread terror in the state in the run up to the holy month of Ramzan," the defence spokesman of the Northern Command said.
In the last 24 hours, ten heavily armed intruders and terrorists have been successfully eliminated, he said.
In the ongoing counter-infiltration operations along the LoC in Rampur sector, six armed intruders have been intercepted and eliminated, he said.
In another counter-terror operation which was based on specific information from a local source in Tral in South Kashmir, have so far resulted in deaths of two terrorists, he said.
Army troops yesterday foiled an attack by Pakistan's Border Action Team (BAT) on a patrol party along the LoC in Uri sector, killing two militants.
