Indian soldiers killed six suspected rebels in two separate gunbattles early Thursday in India's insurgency-hit Jammu-Kashmir state, an army spokesman said. Acting on a tip, soldiers raided the remote village of Achipora, where some guerrillas were hiding, spokesman Lt. Col. V.K. Batra said. Three rebels were killed in the ensuing gunfight in Achipora, nearly 75 kilometers (45 miles) south of Srinagar, the summer capital of Jammu-Kashmir state, Batra said. Also on Thursday, government troops killed another three insurgents in the nearby village of Walarhama and recovered two automatic rifles and a huge quantity of bullets, he said.
