India and Pakistan exchanged small arms fire along the contested Kashmir border for a fourth straight night even as New Delhi ramped up a security crackdown in the Himalayan region following a militant attack that left 26 people dead.
The Indian Army said it returned fire late Sunday after what it described as “unprovoked” shooting from several Pakistani positions along the Line of Control, or LoC, the 740km frontier separating the Indian and Pakistani administered parts of Kashmir. The Pakistani military did not comment.
