Police and Central Reserve Police Force personnel in the night of October 5 shot dead two top militants of the Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) in a fierce encounter at Deedan Gali in the Mahore area of Reasi District, reported Daily Excelsior. One of them, identified as Mushtaq Ahmed alias Irfan, was a ‘district commander’ of the outfit and was among the few longest surviving militants as he was active since 1999 and was involved in more than 10 killings, Deputy Inspector General (Udhampur-Ramban) range Gulzar Singh Slathia said. Irfan’s associate, Shabir Ahmed alias Abu Hamza was also killed in the gun battle. Official sources said Police had a specific input about the movement of two top militants in the area. As soon as they came to the village and started extorting money from the people, they were challenged by the Security Forces and shot dead in a two hour long encounter. A large quantity of arms and ammunition, including two assault rifles were recovered from the slain militants.

Army Chief General V. K. Singh said that infiltration bids from across the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir have increased during the last two months, with around 25 such incidents being witnessed in which nearly 40 militants were killed during the period. To deal with the situation, the Army has evolved a strategy under which even if somebody manages to infiltrate the Indian Territory "he gets killed later on", he added. "As far as infiltration is concerned, we have controlled it to a large extent... In the last two months, there have been many attempts to infiltrate and we have achieved a lot of success also in this regard," he told reporters. He, however, did not give the figures preceding August. Talking about the last two months, he said, "we have had approximately 20-25 attempts and the total number of terrorists killed during this period has been about 35-40." Asked about reports suggesting that Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) chief Syed Salahuddin, along with officials of Pakistan Army and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI), has been visiting terror camps situated along the LoC, General Singh said, "Salahuddin is on the other side... We are not worried with whom he goes around. If he tries to infiltrate, he would also be dealt within the same way his accomplices are."

The Police arrested four persons, including a woman, for allegedly acting as couriers for Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militant in the Kulgam District and recovered huge cache of ammunition and cash on October 12, reports Daily Excelsior. "The arrests were effected during a checking of vehicles at Tangmarg in Kulgam following intelligence inputs about movement of arms and ammunition," a Police spokesman said. He said Police had been monitoring the movements of Mohammad Farooq Deeded and Qasim Jan, wife of Mohammad Bashir Deeded. "The duo were close associates of a Hizb-ul-Mujahideen militant Abdullah Inquilabi of Peer Panjal Range. They were to hand-over a consignment of arms, ammunition and cash to the militant," the spokesman added. The other two arrestees were identified as Nazir Poswal and Mohammad Iqbal Magray. The recoveries made include INR 4 40 000, one PIKA gun, 18 rounds of PIKA ammunition, one Chinese pistol, one binocular and two RPG shells, four AGL shells, two improvised explosive device circuit boxes, one mobile charging apparatus and one kilogram explosive material.

Faced with the leadership crisis, decreasing number of Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) and Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) cadres and lack of local support in many pockets of the Jammu and Kashmir, the terrorists have made a shift in their operational strategy while over 450-500 trained armed militants are reportedly waiting at the launching pads on that side along the Line of Control (LoC) in the South of Pir Panjal range, reported Daily Excelsior. "There has been a shift in the strategy of militants due to lack of considerable local support from the populace in the hinterland. They are not getting hideouts, food and shelter in the populated areas. Top terrorist leadership has been wiped out and the lower cadre is at the run. They have now changed strategy of mingling with the crowd and processionists, instigate them to resort to violence and stone pelting", General Officer Commanding (16 Corps) and Security Advisor Lieutenant General Rameshwar Roy said at Nagrota, near Jammu on October 13. The Corps Commander also said that the intra-organisational rivalries mostly between LeT and HM have also created problems for them in carrying on their activities. Both the outfits are unable to get new recruits and adequate support from the over ground workers or the local support. The recent spurt in violent crowd in parts of Poonch and Kashmir Valley gave sufficient inputs regarding mixing of such elements with the crowd and indulging in destruction of public property, attacks on forces and instigating youth to stoning, making them their soft targets. While referring to the impact of disturbances in Kashmir Valley, he said that it had a very little effect on this side of the Pir Panjal, which divides the Valley and Jammu region. The protests in Kashmir have disrupted the economy, tourism and other development activities, which otherwise was at peak during 2008, 2009 and first half of 2010. In reply to question he said as per intelligence inputs and intercepts nearly 450-500 trained armed terrorists are waiting to cross over to this side at the launching pads along the Line of Control (LoC) in south of Pir Panjal. There may be almost equal number of militants across the LoC on the north of Pir Panjal but these figures may not be accurate. When asked about the infiltration status in Jammu and Rajouri-Poonch sectors, he said that infiltration attempts have been increased but there was sharp decline in the terrorist violence. There was no let up in the anti-terrorist operations and since January 2010, nearly 227 militants have been eliminated along LoC and the interior areas in the State. He however, claimed that infiltration level was almost zero but in view of human error some times or mountainous topography of the area along LoC in Poonch and Rajouri, a few number may have been able to cross over to this side. When asked about the involvement of women in militancy, he said, "We do not have confirmation about them being active in terrorism but some of them may be working as over ground workers".

Three Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) militants, including a self styled ‘battalion commander’ of the Pir Panjal regiment, were killed in an encounter with the Security Forces (SFs) in the Shopian District on October 14, reported Daily Excelsior. The SFs cordoned off Lone Mohalla of Chewan village in the Keller area in the night of October 13 following information about the presence of three militants in the area, official sources said.

Nearly 80 trained militants, armed with sophisticated weapons, are waiting to sneak into Jammu and Kashmir from across the border along the Line of Control (LoC) to create trouble in the State in the run up to American President Barack Obama's visit to India early November, reported Times of India. Intelligence inputs, available with security agencies, pointed out that the militants, belonging to Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT), Jaish-e- Mohammad (JeM), Al Badar, Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) and other terror groups, are looking for opportunities to cross over to Jammu and Kashmir. "The next 10 days are very crucial. We have information that the militants will try to engage in violence in the run up to the US president's visit to India," a Government official said. The official said, "Militants may also try to attack security forces and public properties before or during the shift of government machinery from Srinagar to Jammu, the winter capital of the State, on November 4 and 5". "At present, there are about 500 active militants in the State, and there also is need for us to step up vigil in the border areas as the threat of infiltration persists," Jammu and Kashmir's Director General of Police Kuldeep Khoda told reporters in Srinagar on October 21. "The leadership of various outfits such as Hizb-ul-Mujahideen, Lashkar-e-Toiba, Jaish-e-Mohammed, HUJI [Harkat-ul-Jihad-al-Islami] had done recess along the LoC to plan infiltration. The HM supreme and United Jihad Council (UJC) Chief Syed Sallaudin also visited camps to morally boost his cadres along the Indo-Pak border some time back," the sources said.

About 1400 militants from different parts of the State with majority of them drawn from Kashmir Valley were still putting up in training camps of various outfits in Pakistan and Pakistan occupied Kashmir (PoK), Daily Excelsior reported on October 24. Some of them have been readied by Pakistan Army and Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) to push them into the Indian side from the Line of Control (LoC) and International Border (IB). This has been disclosed by Abdul Waris alias Tauseef Illahi son of Abdul Rashid Sheikh, a resident of Kishtwar and Musarat Hussain Zargar alias Firdous son of Ghulam Qadir, a resident of Gandoh, Doda, the two close confidant of Hizb-ul-Mujahideen (HM) supremo Syed Salahuddin during their continued interrogation by the Special Operations Group (SOG), Jammu.
