While the exact number of terrorists involved in the encounter is still unclear, officials have confirmed the death of at least one terrorist. The operation is expected to continue until all the terrorists are neutralized. Further details are awaited, but the joint operation has sent a strong message to terrorists that the security forces are determined to bring them to justice.
