Security forces have cordoned off the site of an attack in Kulgam, in Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir, as they search for the gunmen, India's Hindi-language news channel Republic Bharat reports.

Field reporter Airawat describes police and security personnel securing and searching the area. The broadcast reviews CCTV footage showing attackers arriving on a motorcycle and firing at Central Reserve Police Force personnel at Akhran camp. The CRPF is a federal force whose responsibilities include internal security and counterinsurgency.

According to the report, three members of the force's 46th Battalion were injured: constables Santosh Chandru and Rakesh Das, and head constable Somveer Singh. The army, CRPF and Jammu and Kashmir Police launched a joint search operation. The video's description also reports the recovery of a mobile phone and SIM card from the scene.

The broadcaster says a group calling itself Pasdaran-e-Hurriyat claimed responsibility, and reports suspected links to The Resistance Front and Lashkar-e-Taiba. Those links are presented as suspicions, not established findings.

In a separate incident in Kishtwar, the broadcast reports that Special Police Officers Rishi Pal and Babi Chand were found dead with gunshot wounds after disappearing while on duty. It does not establish a connection between their deaths and the Kulgam attack.

The coverage also includes National Conference leader Farooq Abdullah, a former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir, challenging assertions that terrorism has ended. He urges talks with Pakistan and argues that war will not resolve the problems. Jammu and Kashmir forms part of the wider Kashmir region disputed by India and Pakistan.

Although the video's title asks whether India's retaliation has begun, the account centers on the search for the attackers, security preparations and an analyst's expectations of a response, rather than a confirmed retaliatory strike.
