"Such"?

From the BBC:
A bear killed two militants after discovering them in its den in Indian-administered Kashmir, police say.

Two other militants escaped, one of them badly wounded, after the attack in Kulgam district, south of Srinagar.

The militants had assault rifles but were taken by surprise - police found the remains of pudding they had made to eat when the bear attacked.

It is thought to be the first such incident since Muslim separatists took up arms against Indian rule in 1989.
Does anyone else find that last sentence boggling? ("The first such incident". The first time since 1989 that a bear has killed Kashmiri militants?)
