Jammu and Kashmir: At least one security personnel has succumbed to injuries while 10 others are injured after an army vehicle turned turtle in Anantnag's Batagund in Jammu and Kashmir.

As per reports, the incident took place when the driver lost control over the vehicle and slipped down. The injured security officials have been shifted to an army hospital for further treatment.

The accident occurred in the Verinag area of the south Kashmir district. Nine army personnel were injured and rushed to the hospital, they said.

In another incident, at least one Indian Air Force (IAF) personnel has died while five others were injured after terrorists opened fire at their convoy in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch. 

Those injured have been air-lifted to Udhampur and are being treated at the Army command hospital.

"There has been a cowardly attack on an Air Force Convoy in Pooch district. The Rashtriya Rifles teams have cordoned off the area and search operations are underway for the attackers. There were 5 people in the Air Force Convey but none of them suffered very serious injuries and we're administering medical assistance to our air warriors. It seems that this is once again an attempt to disrupt the ongoing democratic process in our country. Air Force is very much capable of giving a suitable retort to such attacks," said Mahesh Upasani, Group Captain (Retired), Indian Air Force.
