Armed miscreants attack security forces in Manipur’s Moreh town
Sources said around 4 am, the miscreants ambushed the India Reserve Battalion (IRB) personnel using rocket-propelled grenades (RPG) and live rounds from the hilltop of Chikim Village.
Security forces, on Tuesday, averted a major tragedy when they detected and defused an improvised explosive device (IED) planted by terrorists on the Sopore-Kupwara highway in north Kashmir.
The IED was detected by a joint team of police and the Army’s Rashtriya Rifles at Tulibal along Sopore-Kupwara bypass, a police official said. Soon after detection of the IED, traffic was halted and movement of people was restricted.
A Bomb Disposal Squad was rushed to the spot who defused the IED without causing any harm, he said. The traffic, which was halted on the highway briefly, was resumed after the area was thoroughly sanitised.
