Indian Army's Romeo Force, SOG Poonch recover terrorist arms cache in Gani village

Joint operation by Romeo Force and SOG Poonch uncovers terrorist arms cache in Gani village cave, marking a major security achievement in Jammu & Kashmir.

"The recovery of the terrorist arms cache is being seen as a major achievement by the security forces in the region. - Army Sources"

Poonch, February 25

In a joint operation, the Indian Army's Romeo Force along with Special Operations Group Poonch recovered a cache of arms and ammunition belonging to terrorists in a cave in Gani village of Poonch district, sources in the Indian Army said on Wednesday.

The arms and ammunition cache was discovered during a joint operation conducted by the Indian Army's Romeo Force and the SOG Police Poonch in Gani village of Poonch district.

The recovery of the terrorist arms cache is being seen as a major achievement by the security forces in the region.

The Indian Army and SOG Poonch have been conducting regular anti-terror operations in the border district to neutralize terrorist threats and prevent infiltration attempts.

Poonch district, located along the Line of Control, has been a sensitive area with security forces maintaining high alert to counter terrorism and infiltration attempts from across the border.

Earlier, the Indian Army on February 22 said that six terrorists were eliminated in the last 20 days in counter-terror operations across the Jammu region, dealing a significant blow to the terror infrastructure in Jammu and Kashmir.

Two terrorists were killed on February 4 in an encounter under Operation KIYA in the Jophar Forest area of Basantgarh. On the same day, another terrorist was neutralised in the Dichhar area of Kishtwar under Operation Trashi-I.

Three more terrorists were killed during relentless cordon and search operations in Kishtwar under Operation Trashi-I.

Security forces also foiled an infiltration attempt along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Sunderbani sector, with alert troops of the Indian Army thwarting the bid. In all these operations, a large cache of arms and ammunition was recovered.

Operation Trashi-I, launched in January, has focused on forested and mountainous areas of Kishtwar, including Chatroo, Sonnar, Dolgam and Dichhar, involving multiple cordon and search operations

This is excellent news for regional security. The coordination shown here is impressive. However, I hope the local population in Gani village is also being engaged and supported, so they are not caught in the middle. Peace is the ultimate goal.

Operation Trashi-I and others are showing great results. 6 terrorists neutralized, infiltration bid foiled, and now this arms cache. It's a clear message that our forces are on top of things. Proud of the Romeo Force and SOG Poonch!

While I'm grateful for our soldiers' bravery, we must ask why these caches keep appearing. Is there a failure in intelligence or border surveillance that allows them to be stashed in the first place? We need a more permanent solution.

Finding it in a cave in Gani village... these terrorists think they're clever. But our boys are smarter! This prevents so much potential violence. May our jawans always stay safe. 🙏

The sustained pressure from multiple operations across Jammu region is the right strategy. It disrupts their networks and morale. Good to see consistent reports of success. The local police working with the army is key.
