SRINAGAR, June 11: Indian troops in occupied Kashmir have shot dead three Kashmiri militants along the de facto border with Pakistan and a further three people have been killed by militants, officials said on Monday.
The clash along the heavily-militarised and mountainous Line of Control, which occurred on Sunday, came after Indian authorities said they had registered an increase in militant infiltration attempts as the weather improves and the snows melt.
Police, meanwhile, said militants killed three Kashmiris, including a policeman and an employee of the Indian army's engineering division, in the south of the divided state.—AFP
