Kashmir attack leaves 8 Indian troops dead

[M.harris]

AT least eight soldiers have been killed and 13 wounded after suspected Muslim militants targeted an army convoy in India-administered Kashmir, police say.
The attack that took place on a highway on the outskirts of state capital Srinagar came a day before Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was to visit the area.
"Militants lobbed grenades at the convoy and later opened fire at them from automatic weapons," a senior police official said on condition of anonymity.
"Eight soldiers have been killed and 13 injured have been hospitalised," he said.
It was not immediately clear if the militants also suffered casualties.
Local media said the Hizbul Mujahideen group claimed responsibility for the attack.
Separatist Kashmiri leaders have called for a strike on Tuesday to coincide with Singh's visit.
Kashmir is claimed by both India and Pakistan.
More than 45,000 people - civilians, militants and security forces personnel - have been killed since a secessionist movement broke out in the 1980s.
New Delhi accuses Islamabad of aiding and abetting Kashmiri militants, a charge Pakistan has always denied.
Islamabad says it supports the Kashmiris' legitimate aspirations for freedom.

Killing unarmed soldier is not exactly called success. It is called cowardness.

On topic....RIP the brave solders.

Leave him be. A nation ruled by our satrap will always breed ignorant sheeple...servitude does that to a human.

Attrition is painful in terms of good men lost but not for the nation's strength and perseverance. We've lost many fine men protecting Siachen, haven't given that up nor will we stop protecting Kashmir. We've faced this before and we will do it again. Let the mard-e-momin come and do their worst.

These mard-e-momin can do a $hit. India will finish all of them and send them to hell. By the way, one of the terrorist is a Pakistani

That is not our way. These posters don't represent their own martyrs..leave it be.

Some do get through. The average lifespan afterwards though spans anywhere between two months to three depending on how active they are..the unfortunate attrition they cause though is borne well.

A few more mujahids will soon die perhaps a few more soldiers will embrace martyrdom..everything else will remain the same.

Indian military should stop occupation of Kashmir or these attacks will keep happening I assume.

 

[Chinese-Dragon]

RIP to the dead.

By the way, what does "mard-e-momin" mean?

What these jihadis call themselves...Man of Islam would be the rough and literal translation though the connotation is more martial in nature.

Same old misplaced attempt at ambushing their betters and trying to push us through intimidation. Misguided to say the least.

Indian Army should find and kill every one of these terrorists, and every one remotely attached to these $cumbags like their family, relatives, friends, etc. Maybe then they can all be happy in hell...
