LeT Terrorist Yasir Killed in J&K

A Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) terrorist, identified as Yasir, was killed on Friday during Operation Ashdar in Jammu and Kashmir. The operation was launched after security forces received intelligence about the movement of a group of terrorists through the Pir Panjal mountains.

Yasir was behind the 2024 attack on an Indian Air Force (IAF) convoy and civilians. The Jammu and Kashmir Police confirmed his affiliation with the banned LeT.
