Srinagar: The Indian Army has asked Pakistan Army to approach with a white flag and take back the dead bodies of intruders killed during a failed infiltration bid by Border Action Team (BAT) of the neighbouring country.
Pakistan Army is yet to respond to the offer.
On July 31 night, the Indian Army foiled an attack by Pakistan’s Border Action Team (BAT) on a forward post along the Line of Control (LoC) in Keran sector of Jammu and Kashmir, killing at least five to seven intruders, according to a defence spokesman here.
The BAT generally comprises special forces personnel of the Pakistani Army and terrorists.
“A BAT attempt was made on one of the forward posts in Keran sector (in Kupwara district) and foiled by alert troops resulting in neutralising of five to seven Pak regulars/terrorists,” defence spokesman Col Rajesh Kalia said.
He said Pakistan has made a number of attempts in the last 36 hours to disturb peace in the Valley and to target Amarnath Yatra.
The defence spokesperson said four hardcore Jaish-e-Mohammad militants were neutralised in two operations in which a cache of sniper rifle, IED and mine with Pakistan markings were recovered.
“This clearly indicates the complicity of Pakistan in terror activities. Security forces will continue to respond to all nefarious activities along the LoC and hinterland,” he said.
