Jammu: The 10 Army personnel, including an officer, who were buried under a mass of snow after being hit by an avalanche on Wednesday at a high-altitude post on Siachen Glacier in Jammu and Kashmir, have died. Army and IAF tried hard since Wednesday to rescue the soldiers — a Junior Commissioned Officer (JCO) and nine other ranks of Madras Regiment — after their post was hit by the avalanche at the altitude of 19,000 feet close to the Line of Control (LoC) with Pakistan.
