Heavy snowfall has unleashed avalanches and collapsed homes in Kashmir, killing at least 10 people, Indian officials quoted Indian officials as saying.Police officer Imtiyaz Hussain said avalanches killed two Indian army soldiers camped in the mountainous Kargil region near Pakistan-controlled Kashmir, as well as three Nepalese laborers working nearby, according to AP.Authorities evacuated dozens of people Wednesday from high-risk areas across the Indian-controlled region of the territory divided with and claimed by Pakistan.Five more people were killed when dozens of homes crumpled under the weight of a heavy snow pack in the southern Kulgam and Shopian areas. The snow has also caused power lines to snap and cut some areas off from the rest of India.Avalanches and landslides are common in the Himalayan region.
