Shopian encounter: Two security personnel injured in J&K; internet blocked

We appealed to them (terrorists) to surrender but continuous firing from inside is underway, cannot confirm the number of terrorists yet- Shailendra Mishra, SSP, Shopian on encounter underway between security forces and terrorists in Badigam

A soldier and a policeman were injured on Sunday in a gunfight between militants and security forces in Jammu and Kashmir's Shopian district.

The security forces including police, Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) and Rashtriya Rifles (RR) surrounded Badigam village following a tip-off about the presence of militants.

"As the cordon was tightened, the holed-up militants fired triggering the gunfight," police sources added.

"The injured RR soldier and a constable have been shifted to a hospital."
