The official says a Pakistani Ranger was killed Thursday by unprovoked firing by Indian troops along the disputed northwestern India-Pakistan border.
But an Indian Border Security Force officer, speaking on customary condition of anonymity, says their forces retaliated after being fired on by the Pakistani side.

In the second incident, the Pakistani official says a soldier was killed by militants near the border with Afghanistan in South Waziristan.
The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he wasnt authorized to speak to media.
