Assam: Three Army personnel sustain minor injuries in terrorist attack
At around midnight on Friday, unidentified terrorists fired on the Kakopathar Company location from a moving vehicle.
The troops on duty responded immediately and effectively, taking due caution to avoid collateral damage to civilian houses in the close vicinity.
Immediate and effective retaliation by the Indian Army forced the terrorists to flee the site after carrying out speculative firing using automatic weapons.
No major injuries were sustained other than minor abrasions to three personnel.
The area has been sanitized and joint searches in coordination with police are being carried out.
