Tensions between India and Pakistan escalate again  - 1

New exchange of fire took place between Indian and Pakistani soldiers on the common border of the two countries, reported Agence France-Presse.

This exchange of fire is the third consecutive night after the attack that killed 26 people in the Indian part of the Kashmir region.

Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated sharply after this attack, which took place in Pahalgam last Tuesday. Delhi attributed the attack to Islamabad. It was the deadliest attack on civilians in the region since 2000. Pakistan denied any involvement in the attack and called for a neutral investigation.

The two countries have also imposed mutual sanctions, including suspending visas for each other's citizens.

The UN Security Council has called for maximum restraint between the two neighbors, who have fought three wars since 1947. Saudi Arabia has said it is taking steps to avoid escalation between India and Pakistan, and Iran has offered to mediate between the two neighbors.
