J&K: Infiltration bid foiled, three militants killed

Three militants were killed on Monday as the Army foiled an infiltration bid along the Line of Control (LoC) in Naugam sector of north Kashmir.

"Suspicious movement was noticed along the LoC in Naugam sector last night and the terrorists were tracked till dawn, when they were challenged by own troops," an Army official said.

He said in the ensuing gunfight, three militants have been killed so far as the operation was still in progress.

The official said combing operations were being carried out in the forest area to ensure no militant from the group has managed to sneak in.
