| [Dawn] Fierce gun battles between Indian soldiers and separatist rebels Saturday in the region of Indian-administered Kashmir killed nine insurgents, the army said. "Five rebels who crossed over to the Indian-administered portion of Kashmir from the Pakistani side were killed in a shootout in the Keran area," said Lt. Col. J.S. Brar, an Indian army spokesman. Four more militants were killed in two other gun battles in the region, said Lt. Col. Biplab Nath, another spokesman. Brar said three more rebels were killed in the mountains near Keran over the past three days. Both officers said the army did not suffer any casualties in the fighting. There were no independent reports of gun battles in the region and no rebel groups released statements about clashes. |
