Uri Avenged As Spl Forces Cross LoC, Kill 20 Terrorists

At least 20 terrorists have been neutralised in a daring cross-LoC operation by the Indian Army in response to the Uri attack.

Two units of the elite 2 Paras comprising 18-20 soldiers flew across the LoC in the Uri sector in military helicopters and carried out an operation that killed at least 20 suspected terrorists across three terror camps in Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK).


Total casualties, including those injured, could be as high as 200, sources said.
Military sources revealed to The Quint, which confirmed this information from two other independent sources, that the operation happened during the intervening hours of 20 September and 21 September.
Indications that the Indian Special Forces struck across LoC came in the form of Pakistan declaring a no-fly zone over PoK on 20 September night.

Pakistan’s national flag carrier, Pakistan International Airlines (PIA), had cancelled flights to northern Pakistani cities, including to Gilgit and Skardu in PoK, due to “airspace restrictions”.
PIA called off flights to Gilgit and Skardu in Gilgit-Baltistan region in PoK and Chitral in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa province.

PIA spokesperson Danyal Gilani had tweeted this information late Tuesday evening.

Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif held a telephonic conversation with the country’s powerful Army Chief General Raheel Sharif on Tuesday night ahead of his speech at the UN in which he raised the Kashmir issue. It is understood that they are likely to have discussed this cross-border raid as well.

Speaking at an event earlier on Wednesday, Defence Minister Manohar Parrikar said the Uri attack may need a “knee-jerk” reaction.
“Won’t go into details of what India can do, but sometimes knee-jerk reaction is required,” he said.

Hours after the attack on Sunday morning by four terrorists that killed 18 Indian soldiers, Prime Minister Narendra Modi had tweeted that those behind the act “would not go unpunished”.

India has blamed the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorist outfit for the attack in Uri.
A statement issued by the Ministry of External Affairs listed the items recovered from the terrorists, including GPS tracker with coordinates that indicate the point and time of infiltration across the LoC and the subsequent route to the terror attack site; grenades with Pakistani markings; communication matrix sheets; communication equipment; and other items made in Pakistan, including food, medicines and clothes.

Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar had summoned Pakistani High Commissioner Abdul Basit on Wednesday and conveyed India’s demand for action by Pakistan to crack down on the terror infrastructure in its territory.

Bill in US House to declare Pakistan ‘state sponsor of terrorism’

Two United States lawmakers have reportedly moved a bill in the US House of Representatives, seeking designation of Pakistan as a state sponsor of terrorism.

House Subcommittee on Terrorism Chairman Ted Poe and Congressman Dana Rohrabacher introduced the bill, HR 6069, or the 'Pakistan State Sponsor of Terrorism Designation Act', at a time when Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif is in the US to address the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA).

Congressman Poe termed Pakistan an "untrustworthy ally", which he alleged "has also aided and abetted enemies of the US for years".

"From harbouring Osama bin Laden to its cosy relationship with the Haqqani network, there is more than enough evidence to determine whose side Pakistan is on in the war on terror. And it's not America's," Poe said.

"It is time we stop paying Pakistan for its betrayal and designate it for what it is: a state sponsor of terrorism," the lawmaker said.

He added that US President Barack Obama must issue a report within 90 days of passage of the bill detailing whether or not Pakistan had provided support for 'international terrorism'.

"Thirty days after that, the secretary of state must issue a follow-up report containing either a determination that Pakistan is state sponsor of terrorism or a detailed justification as to why Pakistan does not meet the legal criteria for designation," he said.

this news may not be correct....

few articles are saying, that it hasn't happened.
 
Officially a responsible state cannot cross boundary of a sovereign country without declaring a war. So if any operation happened that must be very very close to border.
