Pulwama 18 September (KNB):A Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) soldier was injured after militants attacked his camp in south Kashmir’s Pulwama district on Tuesday.
According to reports reached to Kashmir News Bureau, the militants hurled a grenade and fired at the camp of 183 battalion of Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) in Newa village earlier today. However, the grenade didn’t explode and the injury caused to the soldier resulted due to the shootout. He was shifted to a hospital for treatment.
Forces launched a cordon-and-search-operation in the area after the attack to nab the militants.
