"One more terrorist killed (Total02). Search going on. Incriminating materials including arms and ammunition recovered," the J&K Police tweeted.

Earlier, the gunfight between the terrorists and security forces started in the morning 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 the 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.
