Surankote area.
POONCH DISTRICT HAS BECOME A TARGET FOR TERRORISTS OF LATE
Poonch district, bounded on three sides by the Line of Control, has become a hotbed of terrorists and a
site of major attacks on the army over the past few years. This region had been largely free of terrorism
between 2003 and 2021, after which frequent encounters started happening.
In April and May this year, 10 soldiers were killed in action in twin attacks in the Rajouri-Poonch region.
Over 35 soldiers have been killed in action during anti-terror operations in the area in the past two
years.
Further details are awaited about today’s incident of ambush.
