Violence erupts in Kashmir over refugee-seat dispute as protests turn deadly
Clashes between police and protesters in Rawalakot, Pakistan-administered Kashmir, left at least 11 people dead and over 70 injured as authorities banned the JAAC and prepared for a major protest over 12 refugee-reserved seats in the AJK legislature; the unrest reflects broader grievances on governance and regional autonomy, with travel advisories and internet restrictions in place ahead of the planned demonstration.
