The Indian Army on Friday killed five militants and an overground NSCN-K worker in Nagaland, the military said.
Two more activists of the National Socialist Council of Nagaland-Khaplang group were injured in the operation in Nokalak in Tuensang district.

Following the attack, a surgical operation was carried out along the India-Myanmar border and at least two terrorist camps were targeted.
