Srinagar- The search operation to locate and rescue two missing soldiers in Anantnag district of Jammu entered its third day on Thursday, officials here said.

Dense vegetation, rough terrain and inclement weather continued to hinder the efforts, they added.

The soldiers, both commandos of an elite Para unit, went missing during a combing operation in the Kokernag area on Tuesday. The operation was launched two days ago in the Ahlan Gadole area, following inputs that a group of terrorists was hiding in the area, officials said.

According to officials, the two soldiers went missing after their communication line went out.

Helicopters were pressed into aerial reconnaissance to locate the commandos.
