Doda (Jammu and Kashmir) | July 18, 2024 8:41:29 AM IST
The exchange of fire between security forces and terrorists stopped in the Kastigarh area of Doda district in Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday.

Further details are awaited.

Earlier today, an encounter between security forces and terrorists broke out in the Kastigarh area of Doda.

This comes days after four army soldiers, including an officer, laid down their lives while battling terrorists in the Doda encounter.

The encounter broke out between security forces and terrorists in the Desa Forest area in Doda on Monday evening.

The soldiers killed in action have been identified as Captain Brijesh Thapa, Naik D Rajesh, Sepoy Bijendra, and Sepoy Ajay.

This comes against the backdrop of the recent terror attacks in the Jammu region, including the terror attack at the army convoy in Kathua and encounters in Doda and Udhampur, which are in the Jammu region. (ANI)
