Srinagar:
Two Jammu and Kashmir armed police personnel have died, and 12 have been injured after two terrorists attacked a police bus near a police camp at Zewan on the outskirts of Srinagar this evening, police said.
One of the fallen policemen is an assistant sub-inspector and another a section grade constable. The injured have been shifted to the hospital where the condition of some is said to be critical.
Terrorists resorted to heavy firing on the bus in the highly secure area that houses several camps of various security forces. The incident took place in the Zewan area.
The area has been cordoned off and a search operation launched to track down the assailants.
This attack comes days after two policemen were killed after terrorists opened fire at a police team in Kashmir’s Bandipora district. Two policemen were critically injured and were shifted to a hospital where the doctors declared them dead on arrival. The incident took place in Bandipora’s Gulshan Chowk on December 10.
