New Delhi : The armed forces have ramped up counter-terror operations after the Pahalgam attack, with 12 most-wanted terrorists having been eliminated in 100 days, sources said. More than 100 terrorists were killed by the forces in Pakistan during Operation Sindoor between May 6-7.Since May, multi-agency counter-terror exercises have been launched, with the most significant being Operation Mahadev, which saw the three terrorists who carried out the Pahalgam attack being killed.
On July 28, Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorists Suleiman, Afghan and Jibran were killed in a joint operation by the Army, CRPF, and the Jammu and Kashmir Police near Srinagar’s Dachigam area. If we talk about the number of these operations, it is very difficult to set a figure. All units across Jammu and Kashmir are carrying out these counter operations continuously in their respective areas, one of the sources told.
Four major counter-terror operations were launched in the first week after the Pahalgam attack. The operations were focused mainly in South Kashmir, including Shopian and Pulwama. Two more crucial operations started after mid-May. According to intelligence agencies, 42 terror launch pads, housing 110-130 terrorists, were active in Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (POK) before the Pahalgam attack.
