Three soldiers killed in Kashmir attack
Police in Indian-administered Kashmir say at least three Indian soldiers were killed and six injured when separatist militants attacked an army camp in the Jammu region. They said two militants stormed the camp in the district of Poonch, southwest of Srinagar, before escaping into thick forest. The Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Toiba group says the attack was carried out by its suicide squad. It's the second attack on an army camp in two days; on Sunday, a base in Baramulla was stormed.
