Three militants killed in Kashmir

Police in Indian-administered Kashmir say three suspected militants have been killed in clashes with the army in two areas in the district of Poonch.

A police spokesman said two of the men were members of the hardline Lashkar-e-Toiba movement.

In a separate operation, Indian Border Security forces say they have arrested three alleged militants - including two commanders - in the provincial capital Srinagar.

They named them as Fayaz Ahmed Teli, Bilal Ahmed Khan and Javid Ahmad Khan.
