NEW DELHI: Multiple incidents of terrorists targeting security forces were reported from across Kashmir on Tuesday.

There were reports of six different attacks in the span of as many hours on Tuesday evening. Terrorists targeted Central Reserve Police Force ( CRPF ) camps and a police station, resulting in injuries to at least 13 security personnel.

Pakistan-based terror groups Al-Umar Mujahideen and Jaish-e-Mohammad claimed responsibility for the attacks, PTI reported.

Earlier in the evening, the encampment of the CRPF's 180th battalion in Pulwama district's Tral area was attacked by terrorists, who tossed a grenade into the camp before fleeing. 10 jawans were wounded, three of them critically, in the explosion.

They were taken to a hospital and the area around the camp was cordoned off to nab the terrorists.

In a separate incident, motorcycle-borne terrorists lobbed a grenade at a CRPF company at Padgampora in Pulwama. No injuries or casualties were reported.

This was followed by the third incident in a day, as terrorists hurled a grenade at a police station in Pulwama. A policeman sustained minor injuries in the attack.

Meanwhile in Anantnag district, a similar incident occured when militants lobbed a grenade at a CRPF camp in the Sarnal area.

Two policemen were injured in Anantnag district's Anchidora when unidentified persons beset them and snatched their weapons. The policemen were stationed outside the residence of retired judge Mohammad Athar.

Terrorists fired upon Army camp of 22 Rashtriya Rifles at Pazalpora in north Kashmir's Kupwara district. The attackers fled after the army launched a strong retaliation.

CRPF officials have informed all units to remain vigilant against such attacks and continue to launch operations against militants.
