The Cabinet Committee on Security (CCS) will meet here on Friday to discuss the situation in the wake of the "surgical strikes" on terrorist launch pads across the Line of Control that inflicted massive casualties and dramatically heightened tensions in the region, informed sources said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will chair the meeting.

Modi also chaired a CCS meeting to consider the situation along the Line of Control (LoC) on Thursday,

An unspecified number of terrorists and Pakistani troops were killed in the early Thursday operation across Kupwara and Poonch sectors as the army moved Special Forces into Pakistan-held Kashmir, officials said.
