Sources: 5. Developments: 2. Security operations in Jammu and Kashmir have intensified following a series of raids and counter-terrorism encounters. In Poonch, a joint operation involving police and forensic experts at a jewelry shop resulted in the seizure of AK-47 ammunition, Pakistani currency, and various propaganda materials. Simultaneously, a large-scale counter-terrorism effort known as ‘Operation Sohan’ was launched in the forests of Bartal, Sohan, and Khubban. During an encounter on September 17, security forces killed two terrorists linked to Jaish-e-Mohammed, though authorities believe a third individual may remain at large. In response to these developments, a high alert has been issued across the Kathua, Samba, Udhampur, Doda, and Kishtwar districts. Security forces, including the Army’s White Knight Corps, the Jammu and Kashmir Police, and the CRPF, are utilizing drones, helicopters with thermal surveillance, and sniffer dogs to expand search areas. Additionally, an ‘over-ground worker’ has been detained to investigate potential logistical support for terrorist activities. ## Timeline ### 2026-09-20: Jammu and Kashmir security forces issue high alert in multiple districts Security forces have placed several Jammu and Kashmir districts on high alert following ‘Operation Sohan’, a search mission launched after an encounter killed two Jaish-e-Mohammed terrorists. 5 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/jammu-and-kashmir-security-forces-issue-high-alert-in-multiple-districts ### 2026-09-17: Security forces conduct raids and investigate crime in Jammu and Kashmir Police in Jammu and Kashmir seized ammunition and Pakistani materials during a raid in Poonch, while a separate shooting investigation is underway in Jammu following the death of a local resident. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/security-forces-conduct-raids-and-investigate-crime-in-jammu-and-kashmir --- Cite as: Security operations in Jammu and Kashmir.
