Escalating tensions between India and Pakistan along their disputed frontier in Kashmir have led to heavy shelling, resulting in civilian casualties on both sides. At least five civilians have died, with reports of intense artillery exchanges that lasted well into the morning. Locals describe the violence as unprecedented, prompting authorities to evacuate tens of thousands to shelters. The military exchanges reflect a deteriorating security situation, with concerns over increasing casualties as both countries engage in fierce combat across the Line of Control.
We're used to hearing exchange of fire between Pakistan and India at the Line of Control, but last night was different, said Mohammad Shakil, who lives near the frontier in Chakothi sector.
In Pakistan, an unusually intense night of artillery exchanges killed at least four civilians and wounded 12 others in areas near the Line of Control (LoC) that divides Kashmir.
