Security forces launched a joint operation in Sopore's Singapore area, resulting in the death of two militants.


Two unidentified militants were killed during an encounter with security forces in the Singapore area of Sopore in Baramulla district, officials confirmed.

Acting on credible intelligence about militant presence in Panipura, Singapore, security forces launched a joint operation.

A senior official stated, “As forces closed in on the target location, an exchange of fire occurred, leading to a fierce encounter.”

 While the operation is still underway, security forces are working to confirm if additional militants remain trapped.

Late on Thursday evening, a cordon-and-search operation was initiated after intelligence reports indicated militant presence in the area.

Security forces tightened the perimeter around the suspected location, prompting the militants to open fire, which triggered the encounter.

In recent weeks, J&K has experienced a surge in militant attacks. A grenade attack near Srinagar's Tourist Reception Centre injured 12 civilians, escalating tensions across the region.

Both the Chief Minister and Lieutenant Governor condemned the attack, urging intensified counter-terror measures.

The escalation of anti-terror operations across Kashmir Valley follows nine recent militant attacks and encounters.

Security forces have neutralised four militants, including a high-ranking commander, in several operations across the region over the past week.
