A senior security official said that the Army launched a search operation in Khandara area of Kathua district, which lies on the border with neighbouring Udhampur, after receiving inputs about the presence of terrorists there.
He said that during the search operation, which was also joined by elite para-commandos, a contact was established with the hiding terrorists. "In the ensuing gunfight, two terrorists have been killed," the official said. The search operation is going on, he said.
The official said that additional troops have been rushed to the area to tighten the siege and prevent the terrorists from escaping the area.
