Encounter between militants and security forces is underway in Rafiabad in Baramulla district today.

According to reports, two militants are hiding in the area, for which search operation by the security forces is on.

An unidentified militant was killed in an encounter with security forces near the Line of Control(LoC) in Uri sector of Baramulla district on August 26.

The recent cancellation of NSA-level talks between India and Pakistan has escalated tension across LoC, in which two terrorists were captured alive and several civilians were killed.
