A teenage boy and two militants were killed in a firefight with government forces in Kashmir yesterday that brought hundreds of local villagers out onto the streets in defiance of police orders. Police said the firefight began after soldiers and police cordoned off a village outside Srinagar early yesterday believing that two suspected militants were hiding out there. Both died in the firefight, which also killed a 15-year-old student hit by a stray bullet, and injured a second civilian.
