Pakistan accuses India of deadly bus shelling in Kashmir

At least nine people were killed and seven others wounded in cross-border fire which hit a Pakistani bus in disputed Kashmir on Wednesday, officials said, in the latest deadly skirmish between India and Pakistan.


The incident came a day after India said three of its soldiers had been killed by Pakistani troops and threatened "retribution", a claim that was angrily rejected by Pakistan.

Wednesday's violence took place in Nagdar village in Pakistani-held Kashmir's scenic Neelum Valley.

Local administration official Sardar Waheed said firing was continuing, preventing ambulances from reaching the scene.
