Indian forces’ operation in IIOJK’s Rajouri enters 32nd day
Jammu: The massive cordon and search operation (CASO) launched by Indian forces in Rajouri district of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) entered its 32nd consecutive day, today, further intensifying hardships for local residents.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Indian troops, paramilitary forces, para commandos and so-called Village Defence Guards, along with helicopters, drones and sniffer dogs, have been carrying out relentless operations in the Dori Maal, Gambhir Mughalan and other areas of the district since May 23.
Senior Indian Army officers also visited areas along the Line of Control, including in Dorimal-Gambir Mughlan, to review the military operation and interact with troops deployed on the ground.
Meanwhile, house raids and cordon measures continue unabated. During the month-long military siege, hundreds of local residents, mostly Muslims, have been subjected to intense interrogation and harassment by Indian forces.
Media personnel and local civilians have been barred from accessing the operation zone, restricting independent monitoring of developments in the area.
Indian forces have further tightened the cordon around the forest zone and intensified house-to-house searches across surrounding areas, turning the entire region into a virtual war zone
