INDIA and Pakistan have exchanged fire along their border with a five-year-old girl killed in the chaos.
Their armies shelled each other this morning along the Line of Control (LoC) in the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir.
Five Border Security Force (BSF) officers and nine civilians were injured in the Poonch sector.
Police chief Ramesh Kumar Angral confirmed: “A minor girl aged around five to six years was killed.
“Five BSF jawans were among 14 injured in Pakistan shelling in Poonch on Monday.”

Poonch deputy commissioner Rahul Yadav added: “Two civilians suffered minor injuries in Pak shelling and as a precautionary measure we have ordered closure of educational institutions in Shahpur area along the LoC.”
Schools in shelling range have been shut and the Indian army is now retaliating.
Tensions between the nuclear-armed countries have escalated this year after a series of border clashes.

Last month, the Pakistan air force shot down two Indian military jets after they crossed the frontier.
It came just 24 hours after India carried out an attack on what it says was a militant camp in Pakistan in revenge for a suicide bombing that killed 40 Indian troops in Kashmir.
A Pakistan-based group said it carried out the attack – the deadliest to take place during a three-decade insurgency against Indian rule in Kashmir.
