SRINAGAR: A woman on Tuesday was left dead and two persons were injured when unidentified masked men targeted vehicles in the city.
Two sisters, Fauzia (20) and Nadia (18), were hit by an SUV (sports utility vehicle) that was reversing in panic after it came under barrage of stones near Rogan Gali at Parimpora area here, a police spokesperson said.
The two were critically injured in the incident. Both were shifted to hospital where the elder sister succumbed to injuries, he said.

“Furqan Hamid suffered an injury in his head and has been shifted to SKIMS Soura for treatment. His condition is stable,” the spokesperson added.
Kashmir has been hit by unrest since the killing of Hizb commander Burhan Wani, with government imposing curfew and separatists calling for bandh and asking people to stay indoors except for few hours of relaxation in the evening.
