According to officials, the driver lost control of the vehicle on the hilly stretch, causing it to roll down nearly 200 feet into a gorge.<\/p>\n<p>Soon after the incident, a joint rescue operation was launched by the Army and local police. Rescue teams rushed to the spot and managed to retrieve the trapped personnel from the mangled vehicle. Four soldiers were found dead at the scene, officials confirmed.<\/p>\n<p>Nine other soldiers were rescued with injuries and were immediately shifted to nearby medical facilities. Of the injured, three personnel who sustained critical injuries were airlifted to the military hospital in Udhampur for specialized treatment, while the remaining injured are undergoing treatment at local hospitals.<\/p>\n<p>Officials said the cause of the accident is being investigated, though difficult terrain and road conditions in the area are suspected to have contributed to the mishap. The Army has expressed condolences to the families of the deceased soldiers and assured all possible medical care to those injured.<\/p>\n<p>The Bhaderwah\u2013Chamba road is known for its sharp turns and steep slopes, and accidents are not uncommon, especially during adverse weather conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Four Army Personnel Killed, Nine Injured as Vehicle Plunges into Gorge in J&amp;K\u2019s Doda. &nbsp;
