Poonch, May 04: In a distressing development, an Indian Airforce convoy was ambushed by terrorists in the Surankote area of Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district, leaving five soldiers injured, with one in critical condition, sources revealed.

The local Rashtriya Rifles unit has initiated cordon and search operations in the vicinity. The vehicles have been secured within the air base in the general area near Shahsitar.
