Jammu (Jammu and Kashmir) [India], July 23 (ANI): One soldier has been injured during the exchange of fire after troops foiled an infiltration bid by effectively engaging infiltrating terrorists with effective fire in the Battal Sector in Jammu, the White Knight Corps said.
The exchange of fire occurred in the intervening night of Monday and Tuesday. Operations are underway in the Battal sector.

Earlier, the terrorists attacked the Village Development Committee (VDC) at Gunda village in Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajouri in the early hours of Monday during a firefight with security personnel, the White Knight Corps said.
Following the attack, an Army column near the area reacted, kicking off a firefight, they added.
“Op Gunda Terrorists attacked the house of a VDC in Gunda, Rajouri at 0310h. A nearby Army column reacted and a firefight ensued,” the White Knight Corps stated in a post on ‘X’.
