NEW DELHI: Six policemen, including a Sub-Inspector, were martyred after terrorists ambushed a police party in Achabal town in Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district on Friday.
Sub-Inspector Feroz Dar, a resident of Pulwama, fell victim to indiscriminate firing from terrorists, senior police officials said.
They said besides the fatalities, some other policemen sustained serious bullet injuries and were rushed to a nearby hospital.
The other martyred include a driver and four other policemen who were on a routine round in their jeep.
A counter-operation is currently underway to nab the terrorists.
Sub-Inspector Feroz Dar was martyred in an ambush by terrorists in Anantnag district.
Pakistan-based Lashker-e-Taiba claimed responsibility for the attack.
The incident was the latest in a series of attacks by terrorists on security forces across Kashmir.



On Thursday, a policeman died after being critically wounded in an attack by ultras in Srinagar's Hyderpora area, while another CRPF personnel was martyred by terrorists in Kulgam district's Bogund village.
13 jawans were injured and four service rifles were looted when terrorists carried out six attacks in the span of four hours in various districts of Kashmir on Tuesday.
The escalation in violent attacks on Jammu and Kashmir police personnel is because of the "frustration" of the ultras, Director General of Police S P Vaid said on Friday, asserting that necessary measures would be taken to prevent them from carrying out such acts.
"We will take necessary measures. This is the frustration of the militants. Whether a militant is killed or a civilian or a cop, it is the Kashmiri who dies. The bloodshed will not take us anywhere, it is only the murder of humanity," the DGP said.
