Army troops on Monday foiled an attempt by two Lashkar-e-Tayiba terrorists to storm the battalion headquarters of the Rashtriya Rifles at Sopore in north Kashmir, official sources said.

The two terrorists, believed to be members of a suicide squad, were killed at the main gate of the headquarters of 22 Rashtriya Rifles at Manzbug, they said.

Two Kalashnikov rifles, six grenades and some ammunition were recovered from the scene, the sources said.

In other incidents, a jawan was killed and another injured in firing from across the border in Poonch district on Sunday night, the sources said.
