The firefight between terrorists and security forces started after a joint team of the police and the army cordoned off the area and launched a search operation on the basis of specific information about presence of terrorists.
As the security forces zeroed in on the spot where terrorists were hiding they came under a heavy volume of fire that triggered the encounter.
There were two encounters in Kulgam on a single day. In a second encounter at Gopalpora in Kulgam on Wednesday two terrorists were killed.
