Srinagar: Four militants were killed on Monday as they tried to attack a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) camp at Sumbal in Bandipora district of Jammu and Kashmir.
The heavily-armed militants tried to enter the camp of 45 Battalion CRPF at Sumbal in Bandipora at around 4:10 am by opening fire at the sentry post, a police official said.
He said the firing was retaliated by the guards even as police reinforcement was rushed to the scene of gun battle.
After effectively repulsing the attack, the CRPF personnel raised `Bharat Mata ki Jai' slogans. Watch:
