Kashmir Korpse Kount
"Early this morning a group of heavily armed militants fired with automatic weapons at a BSF (Border Security Force) camp at Kalakote," a police official said. "Two soldiers were killed and at least three others were injured." Jamiat-ul-Mujahideen claimed responsibility for the attack.
A security patrol vehicle was damaged in a land mine blast in Pattan township but none of the passengers were hurt.
Gunnies killed two activists of Kashmir's ruling National Conference party in in Kupwara district. A woman was seriously hurt in the shootout.
Three civilians, two militants and a soldier were killed in separate incidents of mindless violence across the state since Thursday evening, police said.
The Learned Elders of Islam have moved Jamiat-ul-Mujahedeen toward the top of their active list to take some of the heat - mostly international - off Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Muhammad because of the number of people within their ranks who needed a map to find Kashmir. Jamiat presents a more indigenous face for the killings.
