Indian Special Forces receive heavy toll in Kupwara, Kashmir.

5 Indian Para commandos also killed.
Now this is getting interested...

Dead bodies of all 5 militants killed in Keran recovered.
5 casualties on our side in this encounter but the most imporant thing is it was a succesful operation as all infiltrators were killed.

9:5 is still not bad especially since in Keran militants had high ground.

One can easily say if their's a single person from Pakistan army, this ration would be in opposite way.
Hope this factual statement would help you to build faith on Imran Khan's peace formula, which he announced on 27th February.
 
Blame this that Terrorists came from Pakistan
 
Pros of using expendables for Pak deep state - 5 Spl Forces personnel accounted for. COIN in valley is easier than in LC terrain. This explains why tribesmen and Azad forces were routed in Valley in '47 but were effective in tactical-level encounters at mountains.

NEW DELHI: In perhaps the most intense firefight on the Line of Control (LoC) this year, five soldiers of the elite 4 Para SF unit engaged infiltrators at point blank range amidst heavy snow, neutralising the entire batch of five terrorists before succumbing to injuries in the hand to hand battle.

The elite soldiers, who had been air dropped near the LoC after information on the infiltrators was received, were found barely six feet away from the five terrorists that they eliminated in the intense battle when the search party found them, with sources saying that battleground bore the signs of a close quarters battle.

Two soldiers who were airlifted to a nearby military hospital succumbed to injuries while three died at the battle zone.

Sources said that the operation commenced after an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle picked up images of an infiltration attempt in the Keran sector. The special forces were moved to intercept them as heavy snow had restricted movements on the regular army unit located in the area.

Two squads of the elite unit were deployed to locate and take down the infiltrators but the operation was carried out under heavy snow that hampered visibility. Source said that the squad led by Subedar Sanjeev Kumar spotted the footsteps on the terrorists in the snow and followed the trail.

At one point, the hardened snow under their feet gave way and three members of the squad stumbled into a nallah and right on top of the terrorists who were hiding there. In the ensuing battle at point blank range, where the terrorists had an advantage as they had been waiting, the squad managed to put up a fight.

Seeing their comrades under heavy fire, the two soldiers who had managed to evade the collapsing snow also rushed into the battle zone, together managing to take down the entire batch of five infiltrating terrorists.

“The bodies of soldiers and the five terrorists were found barely a few feet away when the other squad reached the position. The para soldiers had put up a strong fight even after stumbling down and the squad members rushed in to help,” sources told ET.

Other members of the squad who paid the ultimate sacrifice are Havildar Davendra Singh and Paratroopers Bal Krishan, Amit Kumar and Chhatrapal Singh.

Indian army has no discipline of social distancing.

No wonder most of them are testing positive for Covid19. They cannot be deployed in central india to subjugate the freedom movements.
