Jammu, Kashmir and Srinagar

An army official in Kashmir says rebels have fatally shot three soldiers in an ambush.

Authorities say the attack took place Friday outside Srinagar, the main city on the Indian section of Kashmir.

Rebel groups have been fighting for years for independence from India or a merger with Pakistan.

Kashmir is divided between India and Pakistan and they have fought two wars over its control.
