The encounter began at 4 am on Monday and the security forces had successfully managed to trap the militants and also kill them amidst people protest.

The people then tried to march towards Awoora, but were stopped. Further protests broke out in Bijbehara and youth resorted to stone pelting. Clashes between the locals and the security forces continued even as the latter tried smoking the militants out of the house.

The security forces had surrounded the house and also carried out sustained explosions to smoke the militants out of the house. This is not for the first time that the locals have protested an encounter with militants.

Over the past year, there have been several incidents when locals have pelted stones at the security forces in a bid to distract them from the ongoing operation. Further the locals have also gathered in large numbers to attend funerals of militants.
