Two terrorists and an Army jawan have been killed today in the ongoing encounter between terrorists and security forces in Bandipora, Jammu and Kashmir.

This comes after two terrorists were killed in Bandipora on Tuesday in an encounter in Hajin village of Bandipora and another terrorist was killed by security forces in Kakapora area of Pulwama district on Saturday.
