Kashmiri protestors hold a demonstration with torches in the Soura neighborhood of Srinagar, shouting anti-Indian and pro-freedom slogans.

The disputed Himalayan territory has been jolted by fresh unrest since early August, when New Delhi announced it would end the decades-old constitutional guarantee of the half of Kashmir it controls.

Kashmir has been split between India and Pakistan since 1947 and since then the two nuclear-armed neighbors India and Pakistan have fought two wars over the region.
