TWO Army personnel, including a Captain, were killed and another injured when suspected terrorists set off an improvised explosive device (IED) near the Line of Control in the Akhnoor sector on Tuesday.
This was the third incident of cross-border action by terrorists in the Jammu region in four days, and came a day after the general officer commanding of the Jammu-based White Knight Corps, Lieutenant General Navin Sachdeva, reviewed "hostile activities" along the LoC in Rajouri district.
The Army confirmed the fatalities in the blast and said "its own troops are dominating the area and search operations are underway".
