Meanwhile, security forces recovered a cache of arms and ammunition during a search operation in Jammu and Kashmir's Rajouri district on Friday after troops foiled an infiltration bid in the area a day before, officials said.
The recovery was made during a comprehensive search operation conducted in the Nathua Tibba area of Sundarbani sector along the Line of Control (LoC), a day after troops thwarted an infiltration attempt on early Friday, they said.
Officials said troops spotted blood-stained tracks in the area, indicating that the infiltrating terrorists may have sustained serious injuries while retreating.
