10 Killed In Fresh Firing Across Kashmir Border
October 20, 2019
At least ten people were killed Sunday in firing along the de facto India-Pakistan border in Kashmir, officials said, as both countries accused each other of trying to destabilise the disputed region.
Tensions escalated between the nuclear-armed neighbours after India revoked Kashmir’s autonomy on August 5 and imposed movement and communications restrictions to quell unrest.
Officials from the two countries accused each other’s militaries of firing across the so-called Line of Control.
