SRINAGAR: At least 12 suspected militants have been killed in five days of fighting near the highly militarized Line of Control (LoC) dividing disputed Kashmir between India and Pakistan, the Indian army claimed.
The fighting began on Monday after soldiers intercepted some militants crossing into a northern part of Indian-administered Kashmir from the Pakistani side, Indian army spokesman Naresh Vig said on Friday.
According to Naresh Vig, militants also made attempts to cross into the Indian side at three other places in remote and mountainous northern Kashmir leading to fierce gunbattles with the army.
