A terrorist hideout was unearthed by security forces on Sunday evening in Hari village, located in the Surankote Sub-Division of Jammu and Kashmir&rsquo;s Poonch district. Several Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) and other incriminating items were seized during the operation.
The operation was conducted jointly by personnel from the Indian Army and the Jammu and Kashmir Police. This comes after a group of four to five terrorists killed 26 people, mostly tourists, in Pahalgam on April 22.&nbsp;
Officials stated that a Cordon and Search Operation (CASO) had been initiated in the Hari area, during which a hideout concealed within natural cave formations was discovered and dismantled.
According to authorities, the search led to the recovery of four to five IEDs of varying weights, a quantity of explosive material in powdered form, communication equipment, articles of clothing, and other materials.&nbsp;
Officials further noted that the recovered explosives were destroyed at the location by the forces.
Security personnel confirmed that the anti-terror operation is still underway in the region.
