    Two terrorists were killed in a 56-hour-long encounter in Jammu & Kashmir's Kupwara district on Sunday, officials said. The two terrorists were killed in the encounter, which began on Friday morning when security forces launched a search operation in Babagund area of Kupwara in north Kashmir, following information about the presence of the terrorists there, an army official said. Here's more.

    Four security personnel were also killed in the encounter

    The official further said the identity and group affiliation of the slain militants is being ascertained. However, he did not give any further details. A police spokesperson on Friday said four security force personnel - two policemen and two CRPF men, including an inspector - were killed in the gunfight with terrorists. A civilian was also killed on the first day of the encounter.

    Civilian killed has been identified as Waseem Ahmed Mir
