SRINAGAR, Oct 17: Three militants and a policeman were killed in separate incidents in occupied Kashmir after militants ended a brief unilateral truce, police said on Wednesday.
The militants were killed in a four-hour-long gunbattle in southern Doda district late on Tuesday, a police statement said.
It said militants also shot dead a police officer inside his home in northern Kupwara district.
The violence came three days after an alliance of militant groups fighting Indian rule in Kashmir ended a brief truce on Sunday evening. The truce was declared to mark Eidul Fitr.—AFP
