In recent days, there have been several encounters between terrorists and security forces in Jammu-Kashmir. So far, many terrorists and their commanders have been killed, and security forces have also suffered losses. Initially, terrorist activities were limited to Poonch and Rajouri districts, but now they are spreading to other areas of Jammu, which were relatively free from such incidents a few years ago, such as the Chenab Valley, which was declared terrorist-free, and Udhampur and Kathua.
Highly Trained Terrorists Attacking with M4 Assault Rifles
Highly trained terrorists are attacking security forces and civilian vehicles by laying ambushes and using advanced weapons such as M4 assault rifles, grenades, and armor-piercing bullets. The increasing use of advanced weapons by terrorists indicates a significant increase in the level of threat. The continuous attacks have given rise to political criticism, highlighting the need to strengthen security measures and increasing public concern.
Rise in Terrorist Incidents in Pir Panjal
In recent years, there has been an increase in terrorist incidents in the Pir Panjal region, which separates the Kashmir Valley from Jammu. The ongoing anti-terrorism operations in Jammu-Kashmir have pushed terrorists to the hills, where they hide and wait for an opportune time to attack security forces. A comprehensive strategy is needed to tackle the growing terrorism in Jammu, which includes gathering intelligence and better coordination among security forces.
