Jammu/IBNS: Two terrorists have been killed after the security forces foiled an infiltration bid in the Keran area of Jammu and Kashmir, media reports said.

The Army said the terrorists have been neutralised in Operation Pimple, which was launched based on intelligence input from agencies regarding an infiltration bid.

The search in the area is underway.

The Army posted on X this morning, "On 07 Nov 2025, based on specific intelligence input from agencies, regarding infiltration attempt, a joint operation was launched in Keran sector of Kupwara.

"Alert troops spotted suspicious activity and challenged which resulted in terrorists opening indiscriminate fire. Contact established and terrorists trapped."

This occurred two days after an encounter broke out between security forces and terrorists in the Chhatru area of Jammu and Kashmir's Kishtwar district.
