Bandipora: Army last night unearthed a militant hideout in Nagmarg forests of Aloosa in North Kashmir’s Bandipora district recovering arms and ammunition, an official said.

The official said that a unit of Army’s 26-Assam Rifles launched a cordon and search operation on a tip-off in the Nagmarg forests.

“During the searches, a cache of arms and ammunition including ten under barrel grenade launchers (UBGL), grenade rounds, two Chinese grenades and other incriminating material were recovered,” the official said.
