Indian troops killed 10 suspected militants in Kashmir, including six cross-border guerrillas from the Pakistani zone of the divided Himalayan territory, police said on Saturday.

The six were gunned down after they sneaked into Indian Kashmir's northern Kupwara and southern Poonch districts on Friday night, a police spokesman said.

"Five of the infiltrators were shot dead early Saturday in the Shahpur area of Poonch district," said a police spokesman, referring to southern Poonch district, which borders Pakistan-administered Kashmir.
