RAIPUR: Twelve Naxalites were killed on Thursday during an intense gunfight with security forces in the forests of Bastar area in the strife-torn Bijapur district on Thursday, the police said. “Based on specific information about the presence of Maoists at the given forest area, a joint team of security forces left on an anti-Maoist operation. But the exact casualties of Maoists in the gunfight will be known by Friday morning when the forces carry out search operations in the region and return”, he added. The operation involved personnel from the District Reserve Guard across three districts, five battalions of the CRPF's elite jungle warfare unit, CoBRA, and the 229th battalion of the Central Reserve Police Force.
