J&K: A major attack is averted after an IED is discovered on the Sopore-Bandipore highway

According to officials, a major tragedy was averted on Saturday morning when security forces discovered an improvised explosive device (IED) on the Sopore-Bandipore highway in Jammu and Kashmir.

According to officials, the IED was hidden in two gas cylinders; however, timely detection of the IED prevented a large-scale attack.

According to officials, the IED weighed more than 15 kilogrammes and could have caused massive damage. In addition to civilians, the highway is frequently used by security forces, particularly the Army. Rashtriya Rifles and J&K police officers worked together to detect the IED. The IED was later defused by a bomb disposal squad.
