"If this is confirmed its big news & will also mean some tense days in parts of the valley," he tweeted after the news of the killing came in.

Wani, 22, was killed in a joint operation of the Indian Army and the state police on Friday in Kokernag in the Anantnag district of Jammu and Kashmir, army officials said.

He was among the most wanted militants in Jammu and Kashmir.
