crackdown especially the use of pellet guns on protestors and the suspension of internet services, in an attempt to subjugate and further repress the innocent Kashmiris. “We have repeatedly

pointed out that Kashmiri youths are being deliberately and systematically targeted with a view to breaking the will of the Kashmiri people.” India forces killed at least three and wounded

an estimated 70 civilians in Kashmir on Sunday. It is understood the horrific incident took place after people attempted to prevent New Delhi forces from carrying out operations in the area.

forces. As the gunfire between New Delhi soldiers and the militants took place, civilians emerged and attempted to stop the conflict. FIVE INDIAN SOLDIERS KILLED AFTER GUN BATTLE IN KASHMIR
