Following a recent militant assault on the Borobekra police station and a nearby CRPF post in Jakuradhor, Jiribam district, former Manipur Chief Minister Okram Ibobi Singh has called for the urgent and safe release of six civilians who remain unaccounted for.
On November 10 and 11, armed groups opened fire near Yaingangpokpi and other villages, injuring civilians and security personnel.
The militant attack in Doda district of Jammu and Kashmir, which claimed the lives of four Indian soldiers, including an officer, marks a significant escalation in the long-standing conflict.
Earlier this month, a soldier was killed after terrorists attacked a military post in Bannu's Janikhel.
According to the police, the attack took place in Zainapora village.
No group immediately claimed responsibility for the assault.
The attack killed Commander of the IV Police Division, General Ali al-Lemi; the operations director of that division, brigadier general Mohamed Alawi and five other members who accompanied them.
The station came under attack early after the militants hurled a grenade and then fired indiscriminately at the station's guard post before escaping.
Bandipora DC Shahid Iqbal Chaudhary had escaped an attack on him in the same area on Wednesday evening.
The terrorist attack took place at Bonagam in Shopian district of South Kashmir; the four had gone to the area to fetch a police vehicle that had developed some snag when the attack took place
