The Director General Military Operations (DGMO) Lt. Gen. Ranbir Singh briefing the media on the terrorist attack at Army Camp, in Uri, Jammu and Kashmir on September 18, 2016.
The Indian Army on Sunday asserted that the four terrorists killed after they slaughtered 17 Indian soldiers in Jammu and Kashmir were foreigners and belonged to Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed outfit.
The Director General Military Operations (DGMO), Lt. Gen. Ranbir Singh, told reporters that some of the articles recovered from the slain terrorists by Indian army had “Pakistan markings”.
The DGMO said he spoke to his Pakistani counterpart and expressed concern over the Uri attack, one of the deadliest in Jammu and Kashmir in nearly three decades of insurgency.
Ranbir Singh said four AK-47 rifles and four under barrel grenade launchers and some other ammunition was recovered after the early morning attack.
He said 14 of the 17 deaths occurred due to a fire after militants hurled grenades at temporary structures.
