Soldier, terrorist killed in Shopian encounter

Earlier on Wednesday, the alert troops of White Knight Corps of the Indian army conducted a joint search Operation Sherikalan in Gen Area Poonch, and recovered approx 4 kg of explosives. They have been destroyed in situ.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) has told a Delhi court that its investigation in a terror funding case was delayed due to the law and order situation in Jammu and Kashmir following the death of Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

India launched Operation Sindoor and targeted terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and PoJK in response to the Pahalgam terror attack.

The White Knight Corps said the movement of two terrorists was detected in the general area of Jhangar in Nowshera along the LoC at around 3 pm today after intelligence agencies shared credible inputs.

In a written reply to a question in the Lok Sabha, Union Minister of State for Home Affairs Nityanand Rai said that during the same period, 243 civilians were killed and 599 civilians were injured in terror-related incidents across the country.
