Three militants were killed in a gunfight at Amshipora in Shopian district on Saturday, officials said.
The gunfight ensued when security forces were cordoning off an orchard following an input about the militants’ presence.
“The security forces were fired upon from the cowshed of the lone house in the orchard. In the firefight, three militants were killed and the operation is in progress,” the Army said in Srinagar.
This is the second gunfight in south Kashmir since Friday. Three militants were killed in a gunfight in Kulgam on Friday.
