Context

This data was extracted from the following paragraph of the newspaper clippings.

Five persons, including three front ranking terrorists, an Army Captain and a young girl, were killed while four others, including three members of a family, were injured in an encounter in Kalali Morha, Surankote area of Poonch district, on December 31. Official sources said a group of terrorists with automatic weapons and grenades attacked an Army patrol in Kalali Morha and later escaped. However, they were traced in Marha village after a search operation by security forces (SFs). The terrorists are reported to have held some civilians hostages and used them as human shield to escape again. Even as SFs succeeded in segregating most of the civilians from the terrorists, some others remained in captivity. In the ensuing encounter, while three terrorists, an Army Captain and a young girl were killed, four civilians, including three members of a family, held hostage by the terrorists, were injured. Five other terrorists of the group managed to escape towards a forest area and were being chased by SFs, when reports last came in. The slain terrorists were believed to be foreign mercenaries of the Lashkar-e-Toiba (LeT) group. Three AK-56 rifles, seven magazines, 108 rounds of ammunition, a wireless set, 11 hand grenades, a large number of detonators, explosive devices and accessories were recovered from the encounter- site.
