35 HINDU VILLAGERS MASSACRED BY TERRORISTS IN DODA & UDHAMPUR
LeT Militants in Army Uniforms Line Up Unarmed Shepherds and Villagers, Spray Bullets
On 24 April 2006, heavily armed terrorists dressed in military camouflage raided the remote mountainous Hindu villages of Kulhand in Doda and Thawa in Udhampur district.
The militants ordered villagers out of their homes, divided them into groups, and sprayed them with Kalashnikov rifle fire, executing 35 unarmed villagers, including young boys and village elders.
The massacre forced hundreds of minority Hindu families to abandon their ancestral homesteads in the Chenab valley amid total failure of state protection.
