A group of terrorists have entered Jammu and Kashmir and could be planning large-scale attacks, a security official said today, adding that the forces are on high alert in the state and the national capital Delhi.
The official said that the terrorists, who belong to the Pakistan-based terror group Jaish-e-Mohammed, have split into groups and, according to the intelligence inputs, could be planning large-scale terror strikes on Saturday - the 17th day of Ramzan and the anniversary of the Battle of Badr (the first battle of Islam, which took place in March 624 AD).
Security forces have been asked to remain on high alert and maintain vigil around sensitive security installations across the state and in Delhi, the official said.

On Sunday, a soldier was killed after terrorists attacked an Army camp at Kakpora in Jammu and Kashmir's Pulwama district. In the cross-firing, a civilian was also killed. This was the first major attack on the army in Kashmir after the government announced unilateral ceasefire during the Muslim holy month of Ramzan.
