The encounter commenced when security forces initiated a counter-terrorism operation in the Gadole area of Kokernag Tehsil within the Anantnag district, targeting the location where militants were believed to be hiding.[14] The operation was initiated on the evening of 12 September 2023 but was temporarily halted during the night. It was then resumed on 13 September following the receipt of information indicating that they had been spotted at a hideout.[15] The Indian military has reported that they have cordoned off an area where two TRF militants are believed to be located. One of them has been identified as TRF commander Uzair Khan.[16][17]

Simply modifying copyrighted text is not sufficient to avoid copyright infringement—if the original copyright violation cannot be cleanly removed or the article reverted to a prior version, it is best to write the article from scratch. (See

It is always a good idea, if rewriting, to identify the point where the copyrighted content was imported to Wikipedia and to check to make sure that the contributor did not add content imported from other sources. When closing investigations, clerks and administrators may find other copyright problems than the one identified. If this material is in the proposed rewrite and cannot be easily removed, the rewrite may not be usable.

The operation[edit]
The joint operation by Army and police began on 13 September based on intelligence input, followed by an attempt to approach the militant hideout next day. The militants who appear to have anticipated the action opened fire on the forces, caught between the dense forests and hill on one side and a deep ditch on the other, Leading from the front, two Army officers - Colonel Manpreet Singh and Major Aashish Dhonchak, and Deputy Superintendent of Police Himayun Bhat - were killed in action. Two more soldiers were injured while another is believed to be missing, What followed was more challenging heavy firing from the militant side made it an uphill task to evacuate the injured and those killed in action, The assault and climbing team of the army has taken position in the towering and dense forest, and there is a relentless offensive on target hideouts. But there is no clarity if any of the militants was hunted down Amid heavy shelling, a portion of the forest also caught fire last afternoon, but was quickly put off by unexpected showers.[18]
New security challenge[edit]
The militants appear to be trained in jungle and high-altitude guerilla warfare, and prepared for a long haul. It may have taken a long time to set up the logistics in such a treacherous terrain, adding that dealing with this type of militancy is extremely difficult.While security forces deployed in towns and villages across the region have been able to dismantle militant support structures to a great extent, militancy in the alpine forests could undo the gains made in recent years, they say. A similar pattern is being seen in the militant activities in Poonch and Rajouri districts of Jammu, In May, 10 soldiers including five paratroopers were killed in twin attacks by militants. None of the attackers could be tracked down in the dense forest of Pirpanjal despite a massive counter-terrorist operation, In October 2021, the army was engaged in one of longest anti-terror operations in Poonch-Rajouri forests after nine army soldiers were killed in twin attacks.[18]
