26 soldiers killed in bus blast
Suspected Islamic militants blew up a paramilitary bus in the Indian-controlled portion of Kashmir today, killing at least 26 soldiers and wounding 15 others, officials said.
The powerful explosion on the road connecting Sringar and Jammu in India’s Jammu-Kashmir state occurred when a Border Security Force convoy was passing by, said Neeraj Sharma, a spokesman for the paramilitary force.
