Srinagar, Aug 20: The hunt is on for terrorists involved in the ambush in which three soldiers died in Jammu and Kashmir’s Kulgam district earlier this month, with security officials indicating the same group was behind attacks in Rajouri and Poonch this year.
A top security force officer said combing operations were underway in south Kashmir and quadcopters were being used extensively to track down the perpetrators of the attack.
“Our assessment is that the group is still in south Kashmir and has not crossed over to the other side of the Pir Panjal mountain range. We are hoping for contact with the group before they cross over,” he said. (PTI)
