Earlier in the day, a fierce exchange of fire broke out between terrorists and security forces in the Redwani Payeen area of south Kashmir’s Kulgam.
However, there was no official word if the terrorists engaging in a firefight with the forces were the ones behind the Poonch attack.
An Indian Air Force officer was killed and four others injured after suspected terrorists from across the border targeted a convoy in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district on May 4. The area where the attack took place lies between Surankote’s Sanai Top and Mendhar’s Gursai area in the border district.
Terrorists attacked a convoy of Indian Air Force vehicles in the Poonch district, an official had earlier stated. One of the injured personnel passed away after being flown in IAF helicopters to Udhampur for treatment.
In the meantime, following the Poonch attack on May 4, the forces stepped up their search efforts from Surankote to Jarran Wali Gali. Immediately after the attack on the Air Force convoy, there was a noticeable increase in security presence across the Union Territory.
