SRINAGAR, One Kashmiri youth was reportedly killed by Indian troops during an operation in the Kupwara district of the Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir.
According to a news release by Kashmir Media Service, the youth was killed in what was described as a “fake encounter” during a cordon and search operation conducted by Indian forces in the Jamagund area of the district.
This incident comes on the heels of a report two days ago, wherein five Kashmiris were reportedly taken by Indian troops near the Line of Control and subsequently killed. These individuals were said to have been in the forest collecting shrubs at the time of their abduction.
