Civilians Killed In Crossfire

UN chief Antonio Guterres condemned on Thursday recent attacks by Myanmar's military that reportedly killed scores of civilians in western Rakhine state.

A shopkeeper was killed in "cross firing" when security forces were chasing a suspect after he jumped a police check post in Jammu and Kashmir's Shopian district, said the police. The J&K police chief termed the killing of 22-year-old a sad incident.

A late night shootout at Shopian in south Kashmir resulted in the killing of two local terrorists and four civilians travelling in two vehicles. The Army says it retaliated after its check post was fired at from a car, in which the terrorists and their associates were killed.

Top Lashkar terrorist Bashir Lashkari and his associate was killed in a major gun battle with security forces in Jammu and Kashmir's Anantnag district on Saturday, less than a fortnight after the Lashkar-e-Taiba commander led an ambush that killed station house officer of the state police Feroz Dar and five other policemen.

Curfew has been imposed in several areas of Srinagar in the wake of a strike call by separatist groups in protest against the killing of two civilians in firing by security forces yesterday. Train service has also been suspended as the Railways fear trouble.

Two children were allegedly killed in cross-fire between security forces from the Indian Army's para commandos and Assam Rifles and militants of the NSCN (K).
