Indian Army stops major infiltration in Jammu's Akhnoor

In a recent incident along the international border of Khour in Jammu's Akhnoor, the Indian Army thwarted a significant infiltration bid, showcasing the effectiveness of their operations in maintaining border security. Late on Friday night, a group of four heavily armed terrorists attempted to infiltrate from across the IB in Khour sector. The ensuing operation resulted in the elimination of at least one terrorist.

The infiltration attempt was first detected through the use of sophisticated surveillance devices. The terrorists, armed and seemingly well-prepared, were spotted making their move on the night of December 22/23. The precise timing and location added complexity to the operation, requiring swift and strategic action from the Indian Army.

Troop Response and Outcome

The troops on duty responded promptly, bringing down effective fire on the infiltrating terrorists. One of the terrorists was successfully hit and fell, but what followed added a layer of intrigue to the situation. The associates of the deceased terrorist dragged his body back across the IB, highlighting the determination and audacity of these infiltrators.

The successful detection of the terrorists' movement was attributed to the army's advanced surveillance devices. The use of technology played a crucial role in anticipating and neutralising the threat before it escalated.

The White Knight Corps of the Indian Army took to social media to share information about the operation. The official announcement underscored the foiling of the infiltration bid in the Khour sector of Akhnoor. The post emphasised the use of the army's surveillance devices and the subsequent dragging of a terrorist's body back across the IB.

Search Operation and Prior Attack

The recent infiltration bid occurred amid an ongoing search operation to track ultras. This operation was initiated following the killing of four Army soldiers by terrorists in the forest area of Dera ki Gali in the Rajouri sector. The ambush resulted in the death of four soldiers, with three others sustaining injuries.

Encounter at Dera Ki Gali

The encounter in Dera Ki Gali unfolded as terrorists fired at two army vehicles passing through Rajouri's Poonch region. The troops were en route to reinforce a joint operation against terrorists in the 48 Rashtriya Rifles area. The swift retaliation by the Indian Army demonstrated their preparedness and commitment to safeguarding the region.

Joint Operation Against Terrorists

The ongoing joint operation against terrorists in the 48 Rashtriya Rifles area signifies the proactive approach of the Indian Army in addressing security concerns. The troops remain engaged in efforts to neutralise potential threats and maintain a strong presence in the region.
