Three people, including a policeman, have been killed in a terror attack in Kulgam district of south Kashmir, reported PTI.

According to media reports, the militants attacked a police party in Kulgam district’s Mir Bazar.

The militants reportedly fled after the attack. A combing operation was launched immediately to track them down, the police said.

South Kashmir has seen a spate of bank robberies and attacks in the past few days.

On Monday, suspected militants attacked Jammu and Kashmir Bank’s cash van in Kulgam district, killing five policemen and two bank employees.

Two days later, security forces carried out a massive anti-militancy crackdown and cordoned off at least 20 villages in Shopian district.
