2,000 terrorists across LoC waiting to infiltrate: Army
NEW DELHI: More than 2,000 terrorists are waiting across the LoC in the Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) to infiltrate into the Indian territory, according to army estimates.
There are more than 2,000 terrorists hiding on the other side and are getting trained in the 20 terrorist camps there, army sources said here on Tuesday. The army troops and other border guarding forces are keeping an eye on the situation and maintaining extra vigil to thwart any attempts by the terrorists to sneak into the Indian side, they said.
Attempts are being made to push these terrorists into the Indian side at a time when the Pakistan Army has been continuously violating the ceasefire along the LoC and the International Border over the last one week.
Six persons have been killed and 50 others including BSF jawan injured in Pakistani shelling and firing along LoC and IB in Jammu and Poonch Districts in the ceasefire violations this month.
The Indian side is giving a befitting reply to the ceasefire violations by Pakistan, the army sources said.
