Another blood soaked weekend in Kashmir, Tweets Omar Abdullah

Srinagar: Former chief minister of Jammu and Kashmir Omar Abdullah on Saturday condemned the civilian killings in Pulwama where seven civilians were killed in clashes with government forces during a gunfight early morning.
The National Conference leader took to his Twitter handle to express his anguish over the killings,“Another blood soaked weekend in Kashmir. 6 protestors killed, 1 solider killed in the line of duty. Together with the 3 militants from this morning’s encounter that’s 10 dead. Reports of many injured at the encounter site. What a horrible day.” he wrote.
In another tweet Omar said: “6 civilians killed and numerous more injured, many critically. Any way you look at it this was a badly executed encounter. Protests around encounter sites are now the norm not the exception. Why are we unable to learn how to handle them better?”
