A major tragedy took place in Jammu and Kashmir this morning as terrorists entered a camp and killed 17 soldiers. The military officials revealed that around two dozen soldiers got injured in the heinous attack at Uri and after a grueling battle of guns for almost two and half hours, the militants were dead at 5.30 am.
Besides the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi and other politicians, many B-Town celebs offered their condolences to the martyred soldiers via tweets.
Check out all the Bollywood celebs who expressed their sadness over the incident through their social media pages:
