Summary Two people injured in fresh Indian firing in Nakial sector.
MUZAFFARABAD (Dunya News) – Indian troops again violated the bilateral ceasefire early Thursday when they fired at Pakistani positions in Nakial Sector.
Military sources confirmed that two civilians have been injured in the incident.
Earlier on Wednesday, an army statement said that a captain died and a soldier was seriously injured when Indian forces opened fire at Shakma Sector near Skardu.
The fighting Tuesday night in the vicinity of Kargil, where Pakistan and India fought a three-month conflict in 1999, could raise tensions even further.
Later, Pakistan summoned Indian Deputy High Commissioner Gopal Baglay to register a strong protest over the incident.
The latest round of violence began about two weeks ago when Indian authorities accused Pakistani soldiers of killing five Indian troops in Occupied Kashmir.
The Pakistani military has denied that its soldiers killed any Indian troops and accused Indian soldiers of killing a pair of civilians and now an army captain.
The two sides agreed to a ceasefire along the LoC in November 2003, but skirmishes have flared across the heavily-militarised Line of Control (LoC), the de facto border in Kashmir, in recent weeks, with both sides blaming each other for having violated the agreement.
