Three terrorists, suspected to be affiliated with the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM) outfit, were killed in a gunfight that lasted over six hours in a forest area in Jammu and Kashmir's Doda district. The incident occurred amid an intensified cordon-and-search operation launched by the police, Army, and Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) following twin terrorist attacks in the hill district on June 11 and 12. Security forces intensified their anti-terrorist operations and announced a cash reward of Rs 5 lakh each on information about four Pakistani terrorists believed to have infiltrated the district.
