Srinagar attack kills two soldiers, injures three civilians
2009-10-07
[Dawn] Two soldiers and three civilians were injured on Tuesday in a grenade attack in the summer capital of revolt-hit Indian-administered Kashmir, police said.

The blast in Srinagar's central square seriously injured two members of the border security force. Suspected militants hurled the grenade at their vehicle.

The attack also left three civilian bystanders injured and sent thousands of shoppers running for cover as troops rushed from shop to shop in search of the militants.

Rebels have been waging an insurgency since 1989 against India's rule of the region.

Last month militants triggered a car bomb in Srinagar that killed three policemen and a woman bystander.
