3 CRPF soldiers martyred in a terror attack in Kashmir

Srinagar: – Three CRPF soldiers were martyred and two were injured, in a terror attack at Soper, in the Baramulla district of Jammu-Kashmir. The injured are undergoing treatment in the hospital. This is the third terror attack in Jammu-Kashmir, in the last week.

The terrorists attacked the contingent of the ‘179 battalion’ of CRPF and the Jammu-Kashmir police, on Saturday. Three CRPF soldiers were martyred in the attack. The names of the martyrs are Constable Rajeev Sharma from Bihar, Constable CB Bhakre from Maharashtra and Constable Satyapal Singh Parmar from Gujarat. A massive search operation has been launched following the attack. No terrorist organisation has accepted the responsibility of the attack.

Meanwhile, this becomes the third terror attack in Jammu-Kashmir in one week. On Friday, the terrorists attacked a CRPF unit in the Pulwama district. One soldier was injured in the attack. Whereas, a few days ago, terrorists had killed a Police Superintendent in the Kishtwar district. Army Chief General Naravane had visited Jammu-Kashmir to assess the security situation there. But Pakistan is not stopping its attempts to carry out terrorist attacks in Jammu-Kashmir. The Army Chief had retorted that Pakistan is exporting terrorism.

General Naravane had made vitriolic criticism that while India is exporting medicines to the world, Pakistan is exporting terrorism.
