Indian media reported Friday that the Indian Army observed light weapons fire from the Pakistani side targeting border posts along the Line of Control (LoC). A military source confirmed that “the fire began last night and was effectively returned by Indian forces,” with no reported casualties.

This incident follows a deadly attack in Pahalgam, Indian-administered Kashmir, which left 26 civilians dead, mostly tourists. India has blamed Pakistan for the assault, fueling a sharp escalation in bilateral tensions.

In an unexpected development, both India and Pakistan issued advisories urging their nationals to leave the other country immediately, intensifying the diplomatic rift.

In a fiery address, the Indian Prime Minister vowed to “hunt down the perpetrators and their accomplices to the ends of the earth,” signaling a tough response.
