In a decisive counter-terror operation, Indian security forces eliminated top Lashkar-e-Taiba commander Altaf Lalli in Bandipora, Jammu and Kashmir. Lalli was a key figure behind the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives. Acting on specific intelligence, the Indian Army and J&K Police launched a joint search operation on Friday morning, leading to a firefight and Lalli's death. Two police personnel, part of a senior officer's security team, sustained injuries during the encounter. Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi arrived in Srinagar to oversee the ongoing operations and was briefed on the situation. This operation marks a significant step in India's efforts to dismantle terrorist networks in the region. (PC: Kalinga TV & One India)
