Terrorists on Tuesday evening attacked an Indian Army post in Hajin area of Bandipora in Jammu and Kashmir. According to news agency ANI, at least four to six terrorists stormed the Army camp from two sides. They attacked the camp of Rashtriya Rifles and Hajin police station.
The terrorists reportedly fired around eight rounds using Underbarrel Grenade Launcher towards army and police personnel. They carried out the attack around 8.30 pm.
