In a significant operation, security forces have reported the recovery of a substantial cache of arms, ammunition, and explosive substances from the forest area of north Kashmir’s Kupwara district.
According to an official statement provided to news agency Kashmir Scroll, the operation was conducted based on specific information from the Border Security Force (BSF) regarding the presence of terrorists in the Gangbug Forest area of Kupwara.
