Another soldier's body found in Anantnag
Srinagar, Oct. 11 -- The body of another missing soldier was recovered on Friday in Gadol Kokernag forests. The soldier had gone missing in Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district earlier this week, said officials.
The body of one soldier was found on Thursday from the same area, said officials.
On Monday two soldiers (para commandos)--Lance Havildar Palash Ghosh and Lance Naik Sujay Ghosh-- of a patrol party went missing which prompted police and the army to launch massive searches in the forest area.

Their courage and dedication will forever inspire us. Chinar Warriors salute the valour and sacrifice of the Bravehearts. We stand in solidarity with the bereaved families and are committed to their well-being," Army's Chinar Corps wrote on X.

Intense Search and Rescue operations have been launched but hampered due to prevailing adverse weather conditions," Army's Chinar Corps wrote on X. htc...
