Terrorists were aiming to use the cover of thick undergrowth, foliage and continuous rain and low clouds to cross the Line of Control. However, their movement was detected, and they were engaged at about 8.45 am. Three terrorists were killed in the heavy exchange of fire. A detailed search was completed at 2 pm, during which the bodies of three terrorists were recovered along with two AK rifles, one Chinese M-16 rifle and other war-like stores.
