As the Kupwara Encounter entered day three, reporters working with various media outlets said that they have been disallowed to cover the encounter by the Forces.
Speaking to The Kashmiriyat, a reporter said that Forces did not allow any journalist to carry out his professional duty, “They disallowed all the journalists to cover the encounter,” a journalist told The Kashmiriyat.
Wishing to remain anonymous, he said that the Journos have been stopped by the forces and are not being allowed beyond that point.
Meanwhile ambulances carrying paramedic staff have also been disallowed to reach the encounter area where dozens of families are believed to be trapped.
The paramedics staff was on the way to vacate some of the persons who had called the hospital after facing health issues, but the forces disallowed them to move ahead.
More than 50 people, as Locals had earlier told The Kashmiriyat, have been confined by Forces inside a single house.
The forces on the third day of the encounter claimed that two Militants have been killed in the ongoing encounter.
