Army foils infiltration attempt in J&K's Baramulla, one soldier killed

A Pakistan infiltration bid was thwarted by forces in the Uri sector of Jammu and Kashmir. A Border Action Team attempted to attack a forward post on the Line of Control using darkness as cover. Indian Army jawans retaliated immediately, repulsing the attack. One soldier was killed in action during the initial exchange of gunfire. Search operations are currently underway in the area to ensure no further threats remain. The army is on the highest alert along the Line of Control, especially with inputs from intelligence agencies regarding active launch pads and potential infiltration attempts. The number of terrorists involved in the attack is estimated to be between three to five. Similar BAT actions have been repulsed in the Uri sector in the past.
