The information was absolutely correct about the hideout, but before the attack from the Indian side, they attacked with full force. This hideout was a warlike store and many medicines from Pakistan and other sophisticated weapons were also recovered.
Colonel Manpreet Singh, the CO of 19, Rashtriya Rifles, and Major Aashish D of the Indian Army were also critically injured along with DSP Bhat during the prolonged encounter. They died due to excessive loss of blood.
