Pakistan today accused India of using "state terrorism" to break the will of the Kashmiri people.
The Foreign Office's statement came after Indian security forces on Sunday gunned down 13 militants in three counter-insurgency operations that also claimed the lives of three Army jawans and four civilians in Anantnag and Shopian districts of Jammu and Kashmir.
"Our Kashmiri brothers and sisters have been subjected to extreme brutalities and human right violations by India during the last week," Foreign Office spokesman Mohammad Faisal alleged at a weekly briefing.
"This mindless killing spree exposes, yet again, the ugly, inhuman face of the state-terrorism that India has been perpetrating against the Kashmiris for decades," he said.
"We have repeatedly pointed out that the Kashmiri youth is being deliberately and systematically targeted with a view to breaking the will of the Kashmiri people."
