Indian forces on Monday killed three militants, including the suspected organizer of a suicide bombing in the disputed region of Kashmir that reignited tension between nuclear-armed India and Pakistan, police said. The suicide bomb attack on a paramilitary police convoy in Indian-controlled Kashmir last Thursday killed more than 40 men. It's the deadliest single attack on Indian forces in 30 years of insurgency in the Muslim-majority region. The three militants killed in the clash on Monday were all Pakistani nationals and members of JeM, two security sources said. Since the bomb attack, India has withdrawn trade privileges offered to Pakistan and has warned of further action.
