Nine civilians were injured in the grenade attack carried out by militants at Southern Awantipora town, 30 km from Srinagar, on Srinagar-Jammu national highway on Sunday morning, a police spokesman said.
The militants tossed a grenade towards a moving security vehicle, but it missed the intended target and exploded on the road causing injuries to nine pedestrians.
