2 Indian air force commandos, 2 rebels killed in Kashmir

Security forces prepare to fire tear smoke to disperse Kashmiri villagers who clashed with them in Hajin, 38 kilometers (24 miles) north of Srinagar, Indian controlled Kashmir, Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2017. Soldiers began an anti-militant operation by cordoning off northern Hajin town on a tip that rebels were hiding in the area. Two Indian air force commandos and two rebels were killed in the ensuing intense fighting. Street clashes erupted shortly after the fighting ended as hundreds of residents demanded an end to Indian rule in Kashmir. (AP Photo/Mukhtar Khan)
