In a direct response to the unprovoked ceasefire violations by Pakistan in Keran sector of Kupwara district, India carried out precision targeting of terror launch pads, gun areas and ammunition dumps in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK), ANI has reported.
A video of the same was shared by journalist Aditya Raj Kaul.
This footage captured by an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle stems from the same sector where five Indian Army special forces jawans were martyred while battling terrorists.
They had been heli-dropped nearby after an unmanned aerial vehicle detected a trail by infiltrating terrorists.
Coming under heavy fire the soldiers who had fallen into the gorge appear to have put up a brave fight, they were joined by those who had escaped the fall. In the ensuing combat, all the five terrorists were eliminated while three of Para squad were killed by the terrorists. The remaining two members of the army squad were heavily injured and succumbed to injuries after evacuation from the site.

The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.

Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
