    SRINAGAR/JAMMU: Security forces shot dead three Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorists Thursday during a gunfight in Tral area of south Kashmir, the second clash in the region in 48 hours after three Lashkar-e-Taiba men were killed Tuesday.Terrorists Asif Ahmad Sheikh, Amir Nazir Wani, and Yawar Ahmad Bhat — all three Kashir natives — were killed after forces launched an operation in Nader Tral based on intelligence inputs. Drones were deployed during the operation to locate hideouts, officials said.Police urged residents to avoid sharing visuals of the gunfight. “Sharing such content can unintentionally promote extremist propaganda and may affect ongoing investigation,” a police spokesperson said. Public was also asked to stay away from the site.The Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists, including local commander Shahid Kuttay, were killed Tuesday in Shopian. Another Pakistani terrorist was gunned down in March in Handwara. With six terrorist fatalities this week, officials said only seven local militants now remain active — the lowest figure since 1990.In Jammu division, forces launched a search in Reasi district’s Bhaga forest after a woman reported two suspicious men late Wednesday. Another joint operation continued for a second day in Kathua’s Ghagwal area, where two men in military uniforms approached a home and asked for water before claiming to head to their “camp”.Amid heightened security, GOC of White Knight Corps Lt Gen P K Mishra visited forward areas in Rajouri and Poonch with Maj Gen Manish Gupta of Romeo Force. Stops included Narian, Jarran Wali Gali, and Tota Gali sectors. “He applauded troops’ grit and professionalism, calling for razor-sharp readiness and high morale,” said an Army spokesperson.His visit followed heavy Pakistani shelling from May 7 to 10 that killed over 20 people, including security personnel, women, and children, and left at least 50 wounded.
