Indian troops kill 13 infiltrators in Kashmir
2003-07-25
Indian security forces have killed at least 13 guerrillas while they were trying to sneak into Jammu and Kashmir, officials said on Friday. Eight militants were killed when Indian soldiers on Friday foiled two attempts by guerrillas to infiltrate into north Kashmir’s Kupwara district. A defence spokesman here said five guerrillas were killed when a group of militants was challenged by soldiers in the Nigena Bridge area along the Line of Control (LoC) in Kupwara on Friday morning. In another gun battle, three militants were killed while trying to sneak across the LoC in Jumagund area of Kupwara district. Soldiers recovered a large cache of arms and ammunition from this group of militants. There were no casualties among Indian troops in the two gun battles. The identity of the eight dead guerrillas is yet to be established.
