Security Forces Recover Suspected IEDs from Terrorist Cave Hideout in Jammu and KashmirPreviousNext

Security forces in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district uncovered a terrorist hideout in a natural cave in the Kasblari area, recovering six to seven suspected improvised explosive devices (IEDs) and various materials including magazines, bags, containers, power adapters, and a tiffin box. The Indian Army and bomb disposal squad are examining the seized items. Officials noted that terrorists increasingly use forest cave hideouts to evade detection and plan operations, as local support has diminished.
