“At
least 18 terrorists were killed, including 16 Pak Army personnel as a part of
the Indian Army’s artillery assault on terror launch pad in Neelum Valley and
few other places in POK on October 19 and 20”, sources from the security and intelligence department of the
Indian Army said on condition of anonymity.
However,
the army did not confirm the number of death.
The
officials revealed that all the terror launch pads that housed Jaish-e-Mohammed
and other jihadists were destroyed in the pin-point artillery firing by the
Indian army – retaliatory action to indiscriminate and unprovoked Pakistani
firing along the Line of Control.
The
authorities stressed that the Army Chief General, Bipin Rawat, also briefed the
Defense Minister, Rajnath Singh, twice about the Indian Army fire assault on
PoK launch pads with the latter congratulating the former on the resolute
action.
“Rajnath Singh said that while no terror launch pads should be spared, care should be taken to ensure that the innocent civilian population is not targeted”, the official said quoting General Rawat’s conversation with Defense Minister.
