RAJOURI: Indian troops were killed and others injured in a heavy overnight attack on a military sub-camp in the Rajouri sector of Indian-administered Kashmir, local sources reported. The assault, which took place late on 4 February at the Kakora sub-camp, operated by the army’s Rashtriya Rifles unit, marked the latest in a series of violent incidents in the region.
According to sources familiar with the matter, eight soldiers lost their lives during the attack, while several others sustained injuries. The Indian army had not issued an official statement immediately, and details regarding the exact sequence of events remained unclear. Residents of nearby villages described hearing the sound of gunfire and explosions late into the night, adding to the anxiety that has gripped communities in the area.
Rajouri, located along the volatile Line of Control, has witnessed repeated clashes and cross-border tensions in recent months. Analysts say such attacks reflect the fragile security environment in the region, where both the army and local populations continue to face the threat of sudden violence.
Military officials, speaking off the record, suggested that patrols and intelligence operations were being intensified in the aftermath of the assault, though they cautioned against immediate conclusions about the perpetrators. The incident has reignited concerns about the persistent instability in Indian-administered Kashmir, where longstanding disputes and security challenges have repeatedly undermined peace efforts.
