(Web Desk) - India forces continued firing guns and mortars on several Pakistani border posts along the line of control (LoC).
According to military sources‚ Indian BSF started unprovoked shelling on village Dhamala in Charwah sector near Sialkot.
As a result, Rangers responded to Indian firing.
In most cases, India or Pakistan accuses the other of initiating the fighting. Both sides, however, have acknowledged an increase in the number of cross-border attacks since the Pakistani and Indian prime ministers met for their first face-to-face meeting last month in New York and agreed on the need to reduce tensions.
Pakistani military officials have said that, over the last week, "unprovoked firing" by Indian forces has killed a Pakistani soldier and a civilian. Ten other civilians were wounded, the Pakistani officials said, speaking on condition of anonymity in line with military policy.
Most recently, the Pakistani officials said Indian forces shelled Dhamala village near Sialkot on Tuesday. Pakistani soldiers returned fire, and no casualties were reported.
India and Pakistan fought wars in 1947 and 1965 over their rival claims to the Himalayan territory, and have regularly sparred over the heavily militarized Line of Control that divides the territory between them.
