In Jammu and Kashmir's Budgam district, a joint operation by security forces resulted in the killing of a terrorist named Yasir, who was identified as a member of Lashkar-e-Taiba and a resident of Pakistan. The operation, referred to as Operation Ashdar, took place on Friday and was initiated based on intelligence regarding the movement of a suspected group of terrorists from Pakherpora in the Pulwama district toward Yousmarg in Budgam, according to officials.

The identity of the terrorist had not been confirmed immediately after the operation, as reported by multiple sources. However, J&K Police later provided clarity on Yasir's identity, linking him to terrorist activities in the region. Reports indicated that security forces were also conducting searches for another individual believed to be part of the same group.

This operation highlights ongoing security operations in Jammu and Kashmir aimed at countering terrorism and maintaining stability in the region.
