In a significant anti-terror operation in South Kashmir, the Indian Army’s 19 Rashtriya Rifles, in collaboration with Jammu & Kashmir Police, uncovered a terrorist hideout in the Hornag-Watkash forest area of Anantnag district. Following credible intelligence, security forces launched a search operation, leading to the discovery of a well-camouflaged hideout containing various items such as backpacks and suspected war-like stores. Although the hideout appeared abandoned, its tactical location suggested it was used by terrorists for shelter and logistics. This operation underscores the Indian defense forces’ commitment to disrupting militant networks and enhancing security in the region, particularly as winter approaches, thereby diminishing the operational capabilities of terrorist groups.
