6-7 Pak terrorists involved in Poonch attack, manhunt, thermal surveillance intensified | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 21: Even as at least five soldiers laid down their lives in a terror strike in Poonch on April 20, six to seven Pakistani terrorists are believed to have carried out the dastardly act.
Sources said the intelligence agencies have inputs that at least six to seven terrorists, who may have infiltrated into the Indian territory from Pakistan in the recent past, have been active in the Rajauri Poonch area.
The sources said the terrorists linked to the Lashkar carried out the attack from multiple sides to cause maximum damage to the Army vehicle in which the Jawans were travelling.
Sources said the terrorists are believed to have carried out the attack in group of two
and could be hiding in the dense forests in the area and that thermal scanning of the area will “hold key to the flushing out the terrorists.” The Indian Army is leading the operations.
The sources said the hilly terrain where the attack took place has dense forest cover and caves as well -something that is hindering the sanitization of the area to flush out the hiding terrorists.
