The conflict between India and Pakistan climbed on Wednesday with bombing of New Delhi’s forces against the neighboring country and crossed artillery shots in the disputed Kashmir region with dozens of dead civilians. India announced the destruction of “nine terrorist camps” in Pakistani territory.
On the other hand, Pakistan said that he knocked down five Indian combat planes and denounced the death of 26 innocent civilians, including two children.
Shots between the two troops
At least ten civilians were achieved by bullets of an intense exchange of shots between Indian and Pakistani troops along the control line (LDC), the de facto border that divides the Cashmira region administered by India and Pakistan, in the middle of a climb between the nuclear powers.
A military source consulted by the EFE informative agency, indicated that the clashes occurred between Tuesday night and the first hour of Wednesday, making this the thirteenth day of clashes at the border.
Wounded in Kashmir
In addition to the deceased, several people were injured and housing located near the border line suffered damage, especially in the URI sector, in northern Cashmira, according to a local resident by telephone to the aforementioned agency.
“The Government is fully prepared to deal with any eventuality. I have ordered the district directors to transfer to the vulnerable areas to safer places and guarantee accommodation, food, medical care and transport. We will guarantee the safety of all citizens,” said the governor of the region, MANJ Sinha.
Three combat fighters of the Indian Army crashed in their territory for reasons not yet revealed, a country security source reported in the middle of the climbing of hostilities with Pakistan.
India defended its military operation in Pakistan this Wednesday as a direct response to the inaction of this country after the deadly terrorist attack two weeks ago in the Indian Kashmir, committed by a terrorist group based on Pakistan.
Indian Foreign Secretary, Vikram Misri, transmitted this information during a press conference this Wednesday, in which questions were not allowed.
