"Obviously, we`re concerned about the violence," US State Department spokesperson John Kirby said in his daily press briefing on Monday.


"We encourage all sides to make efforts towards finding a peaceful resolution," he said.


"This is really a matter for the Government of India to speak to specifically, and I`d refer you to them for more comment," he added.


Since violence started on Saturday following the death of top Hizbul Mujahideen commander, Burhan Wani, 22, who was killed in a gunfight on Friday along with two of his associates, 30 people including 29 civilian protesters and a policeman have died.
