Frustrated with continuous anti-terror operations been carried out by Jammu and Kashmir Police along with the Indian Army and CRPF in Kashmir Valley, the terrorists have resorted to targeting security forces and civilians in an attempt to show their dominance in the valley.

"Terrorists on Wednesday morning attacked a joint Naka party of Jammu and Kashmir police and 179 battalion of CRPF deployed in Model Town area of Sopore in Baramulla district of North Kashmir. The terrorist fired indiscriminately on the joint Naka party injuring 4 CRPF personnel and a civilian," an official told Republic Media Network.

In this year, the security forces in Kashmir Valley have managed to gun down more than 118 terrorists including top commanders of Jaish E Mohammad, Hizbul Mujahideen, Lashkar e Taiba and Ansar Ghazwat ul Hind.
In this deadly terror attack, a three-year-old child was rescued by a Jammu and Kashmir policeman while risking his life during ongoing firing by the terrorists.
