Indian forces kill four freedom fighters in IHK

Author: Agencies

Indian occupation forces killed four freedom fighters in Indian-held Kashmir on Tuesday.

Police said one soldier from India’s special forces’ unit was killed and two soldiers injured in the encounter.

As the news of the freedom fighters killing spread, hundreds of villagers seeking an end to Indian rule hit the streets to show solidarity with them.

Army spokesman Col Rajesh Kalia says fighting began early Tuesday after police and soldiers cordoned off a village in the occupied valley. At least four women were injured when troops fired bullets, shotgun pellets and tear gas to confront protesters.
