Two soldiers died and two others were injured after an Army truck skidded off the road and plunged into a gorge in Jammu and Kashmir’s Bandipora district on Saturday.

Officials said the accident occurred near the SK Payen area and the injured soldiers have been rushed to a hospital for treatment.

In a similar incident last month, five soldiers died and five others were injured after the truck they were travelling in plunged into a 300-foot gorge in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch. 

“All ranks of #WhiteKnightCorps extend their deepest condolences on the tragic loss of five brave soldiers in a vehicle accident during operational duty in the #Poonch sector,” the Army’s White Knight Corps had written on X.
