Pakistan says 9 civilians, 3 soldiers killed in Indian shelling
Indian shelling across the frontier into Pakistani-controlled Kashmir hit a bus, killing at least nine people, and three Pakistani soldiers were killed in cross-border firing, Pakistani officials said on Wednesday.
India, in a statement, expressed grief at Pakistani civilian casualties but said: "Retaliatory firing by Indian troops has only been carried out targeting locations from where Pakistan has initiated ceasefire violations on Indian posts."
Describing the bus incident, Pakistani police official Jamil Mir put the number of dead at nine, and that four bodies were taken to a nearby hospital and five were still trapped in the bus.
