ISLAMABAD: Seven Pakistani soldiers were killed by Indian shelling across the frontier in the disputed Kashmir region overnight, Pakistani's military said on Monday. The military media wing, ISPR, said in a statement the seven soldiers were killed in the Bhimber sector on the 'Line of Control' de facto border in Pakistan-administered Kashmir. Relations between the two nuclear armed neighbours have been strained for several months, while cross-frontier shelling has intensified in recent weeks.
