Udhampur – February 3, 2026 :- A fierce gunbattle erupted today in the Johpar -Marta sector after a joint team of the Indian Army’s White Knight Corps, Jammu and Kashmir Police, and the CRPF tracked down a group of terrorists.
Acting on specific intelligence, troops from CIF Delta established contact with the insurgents around 4:00 PM, triggering an immediate firefight.
The area has been heavily cordoned off by security forces to ensure the targets are pinned down, as the challenging terrain remains a focal point of the engagement.

As of this evening, the exchange of fire continues, and the White Knight Corps has confirmed that the situation is being monitored closely with active combat maneuvers.
