Uri: At least 10 militants and a soldier were killed on Tuesday as the army claimed to have foiled two major infiltration bids from Pakistan near the LoC, two days after a massive terror strike killed 18 army men in this garrison town of Uri in Jammu and Kashmir.
The infiltration attempts came as India and Pakistan are locked in a diplomatic war of words over a deadly unrest in the Kashmir Valley and soon after the Sunday attack on military base close to the de facto border that divides the state between the two neighbours.
The operation near the Lachipora border area of the garrison town ended late Tuesday night and 10 militants had been killed.
