Three foreign terrorists were involved in the attack on a civilian bus in Jammu and Kashmir's Reasi Sunday evening, sources have told NDTV, adding, there are three terror groups operating in the region.
Unconfirmed reports say at least two terrorists are hiding in the upper (and forested, making it difficult to access and search) reaches of the Reasi region. A massive search op is underway to locate them.
Sources also said the terrorists used M4 carbines - American-made assault rifles developed in the 1980s and used extensively by militaries worldwide, including a variant reportedly in service with Pakistani special forces and the Special Security Unit of the Sindh Police.
