Five Border Security Forces (BSF) personnel were injured on Monday after terrorists opened fire at two BSF patrol vehicles in Srinagar's Pantha Chowk.

The injured jawans have been rushed to the hospital for medical treatment.

Speaking about the attack, Ravi Deep Singh Sahi, inspector-general, CRPF said, "Things are under control now. Today around 6 pm near BSF HQ, two cars which were returning from duty were attacked by the terrorists. Four to five people sustained bullet injury. The search operation is on."
