An encounter broke out between terrorists and security forces in Kulgam's Chadder Bhan area in Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday after an attack on an Army patrol party.

Heavy firing is underway between the terrorists and security forces.

Director General of Police (DGP), Jammu and Kashmir Shesh Paul Vaid took to his Twitter handle to disclose that two terrorists have so far been killed.

"Reportedly two terrorists killed so far," he tweeted.
