Indian troops martyred six more youth in Kupwara district of Jammu and Kashmir on Wednesday.
The youth were killed during the ongoing military operations in the Keran and Machil areas of the district, KMS reported.
However, Indian Army officers claimed that the martyred youth were militants, who were killed during fights on Monday and Tuesday in the areas.
In a separate incident, massive protests rocked Doda region in Jammu and Kashmir against the killing of a class 10 student by members of the Indian army-backed village defence committees.
In another incident, two civilians, including a woman, were killed and another injured near Omara Morh in Udhampur when a rashly-driven Indian Army vehicle ran over them.
