Pakistani, Indian forces trade fire in Kashmir

The Pakistani army says it has shelled Indian military posts and caused major damage in the restive region of Kashmir. The attack is said to be in response to an Indian mortar strike on areas controlled by Pakistan.

The Indian military announced on Tuesday that it had attacked and damaged Pakistani army posts in Kashmir as it sought to prevent militants infiltrating from the Pakistani side of the disputed region, but Pakistan denied the assertion. India has accused its neighbor of supporting terrorists but a Pakistani military spokesman dismissed the claims as “baseless and misleading.”
