Srinagar/New Delhi, Sep 18 (UNI) Four heavily armed terrorists struck an Army camp close to the headquarter of the 12th Brigade at Uri in Baramulla District of Jammu and Kashmir early this morning leaving 17 soldiers dead and 19 others injured. It was one of the deadliest terror attack on security forces in recent times in the state.
The high casualties in the attack, which took place at 0400 hrs, could be attributed to the fact that the soldiers had been stationed at the camp in tents and other temporary structures which caught fire during the attack and the blaze spread to other parts of the barracks.
Centre reviewed the security situation in the wake of the deadly attack. The high-level emergency meeting, chaired by Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh, was attended by Home Secretary Rajiv Mehrishi, IB and R&AW chiefs and NSA chief Ajit Doval.
