Dangri is a village located in the Rajouri district of Jammu region in the Indian union territory of Jammu and Kashmir.

These separate attacks are the third such incidents of civilian killings in the Rajouri district in the past two weeks after two people were killed outside an Army camp on December 16. The attack has sparked panic in the district. Several organizations have called for a strike today to protest against the incident and demand swift action. Army and the CRPF have launched a massive search operation to nab the two “armed men” behind the attack at Upper Dangri village.

A child was killed and four others injured in an IED explosion on Monday near the house of one of the victims of the suspected terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Dangri village, officials said. Terrorists struck for the second time at the same site within 14 hours in Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajouri, leaving a minor sister-brother duo dead and six others injured in an IED explosion on Monday.

Sanvi Sharma and Vihan Kumar Sharma were killed in the blast in Dangri village where terrorists had opened fire at three houses on Sunday evening, killing four civilians and injuring six others, according to officials. The explosion took place near the house of Pritam Lal, a victim of the terror attack on Sunday evening, locals said. There were several people, including Lal’s relatives, in the house when the blast took place at around 9.30 am.

As the incidents led to protests across the district, including in Rajouri town, and a complete shutdown, Director General of Police Dilbag Singh, who visited the protest site at Dangri Chowk, said that the IED blast was intended to target senior officers who were about to reach there.

.“A blast occurred near the house of the victim of yesterday’s firing incident in Rajouri’s Upper Dangri village. Another suspected IED [improvised explosive device] was spotted, which is being cleared,” officials said. While the boy was killed in the IED explosion, the minor girl, who was critically injured in the blast, succumbed to her injuries later. Meanwhile, a shutdown was observed in Rajouri. A strike call was issued by the Sanatan Dharm Sabha. It was supported by local political parties.

The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) will send additional 18 companies to Jammu and Kashmir in the wake of recent killings of civilians in two fresh terror attacks in the Rajouri district, sources familiar with the development said. The attack has sparked panic in the district. Several organizations have called for a strike today to protest against the incident and demand swift action. Army and the CRPF have launched a massive search operation to nab the two “armed men” behind the attack at Upper Dangri village.
