The Indian Army successfully prevented a big terror attack in Rajouri district, Jammu & Kashmir, earlier today.

A group of terrorists attacked an army base in Gunda village, Rajouri early morning

Although a soldier was injured in the attack, security personnel immediately launched a huge search operation to flush out the attackers.

This tragedy occurs amid a wave of terror strikes in the Jammu region, causing serious security worries. Yesterday, Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi paid a visit to Jammu to discuss strategies for combating the huge increase in terrorist assaults on the army.

Notably, the region was free of terrorism until a few years ago

The attack on the army camp in Gunda village began at 4 a.m., with continuous firing lasting more than an hour. The army’s strong counterattack caused the attackers to retreat, but it demonstrates the daring of such attacks in the region.

Recently, a temporary army camp put up in a school in the Doda region was attacked with heavy gunfire and grenades, killing soldiers

Despite the hurdles, the army has sent more troops, including special forces commandos, to the Jammu region to confront highly trained terrorists.

In the past 32 months, 48 army soldiers have died in terrorist strikes in Jammu

PM Modi recently presided over a cabinet committee on security meeting to confront Jammu’s rising terrorist threat.

He emphasized the importance of utilizing the whole range of anti-terrorist capabilities in order to remove terrorists from the region. Nonetheless, attacks persist, even as security forces conduct extensive cordon and search operations.
To summarize, the Indian Army’s rapid response and ongoing operations are crucial to defending the region from terrorist threats. The situation is still tense, and authorities are closely monitoring developments.
