Seventeen Killed in Raging Gunbattles Across Kashmir
Violence flared in the disputed Kashmir region, at the core of a fight between nuclear-armed India and Pakistan, with 17 people, including 15 rebels, killed in separate gunbattles, officials said on Friday. :: This Reuters report submitted for your rumor of war (Matthew 24:6) files. :: The media seemed to have backed away from covering this crisis, a missing Utah girl being so much more important, but it's worth noting that India and Pakistan still have over a million troops facing each other on their border and gunbattles between them are still raging. It's a war that could turn hot, and nuclear, at any moment.
