A significant anti-terror operation was launched in Jammu city on Monday, (02 September), after suspected terrorist activity was detected near the largest Army base in the region. The operation, which began in the early hours, was initiated following intelligence reports of potential threats in the vicinity of the military installation.
The Army base, a crucial security hub in Jammu, has been completely sealed off to prevent any unauthorized movement and to safeguard military personnel and assets. As the situation unfolded, a special operations group was swiftly deployed to the scene to assist with the ongoing efforts to neutralize the threat.
In the course of the operation, one Army personnel was injured, though the extent of the injuries has not been disclosed. The injured soldier was immediately evacuated to a nearby military hospital for treatment.
The operation has heightened tensions in the area, with security forces maintaining a high alert status. Local authorities have advised residents to avoid the vicinity of the Army base and follow any security instructions issued by the military or police.
This incident comes amid ongoing concerns about security in Jammu and Kashmir, where the region has seen sporadic violence and militant activity. The operation is still ongoing, and further updates are expected as the situation develops.
