Srinagar: Security forces on Sunday busted a terrorist hideout after a brief exchange of fire with the ultras in south Kashmir’s Anantnag district, police said.
“The security forces had launched a cordon and search operation in Andan in the district’s Sangam area following information about the presence of terrorists there,” a police officer said.
The officer said the “terrorists opened fire on the security forces and a gunfight ensued”, adding that the “terrorists managed to escape and in a subsequent search, blankets and other stores were found in a cave-like hideout.”
There are no reports of casualties on either side, police said.
