ISLAMABAD: Pakistan officials on Saturday accused Indian troops of killing two civilians in "unprovoked firing" across the border in its eastern province of Punjab.
Pakistani officials said the latest incident occurred in Sialkot region which faces the south of the Indian occupied Jammu and Kashmir and where another civilian was killed by Indian firing last month.
"Today Indian Border Security Forces (BSF) again resorted to unprovoked firing in Chaprar and Harpal sectors on the working boundary near Sialkot. Two civilians including a woman and a 60-year-old man were martyred due to BSF firing," a senior military official told AFP.
"Intermittent exchange of fire is still continuing at this moment," the official said.
