The first encounter started at Hadipora area of South Kashmir's Shopian district while the second encounter began in the Semthan Bijbehara area of the Anantnag district.

The gunfight at both the places took place after joint teams of the police and the Army cordoned off the areas and launched search operations on the basis of specific information about the presence of terrorists.

As the security forces zeroed in on the spots where terrorists were hiding they came under a heavy volume of fire that triggered the encounters.
