"Terrorists lobbed a grenade at HSH Street Srinagar," Kashmir police said on Twitter. At the time, India blocked phone and internet across the region and sent in thousands of additional troops, imposing curfew-like restrictions to dampen discontent. India has said its move was essential to integrate Kashmir fully into India and spur development in the Muslim-majority region, which is also claimed by India's arch rival Pakistan. A grenade attack in southern Kashmir's Anantnag city a week ago injured 10 people, police said. Communication and travel restrictions have gradually been eased and India said by Monday it would partially restore mobile phone lines, although the internet still remains largely blocked.
