Pakistan denies the accusations, but the two countries launched border strokes and sent drones and missiles in the other countries of the other Kashmir region, over 40 people losing their lives in these attacks, according to Reuters.
The Indian army also stated that Pakistani troops resorted to “numerous violations of ceasing fire“Along the de facto border between the two countries in Kashmir, a region that is divided between them, but claimed entirely by both.
“Drone attacks were effectively rejected and an adequate response to CFV was given (violations of fire termination) ””the army said.
The opening and closing of Pakistan's airspace against the background of tensions between the two nuclear -armed neighboring states disrupt the flights and confuses travelers.
First, Pakistan closed its air space after India's missile attacks in the early hours of Wednesday morning, before finally reopening. But, starting Thursday, disturbances persist, the national carrier declaring that several flight routes have been suspended, the source said.
“The temporary closure of the routes is done for the safety of the goods and passengers of the national airlines. Passengers are asked to understand the sensitive character of the problem and to cooperate with the personnel of the airline”, said Pakistan International Airlines.
And on Wednesday, Indian airlines reported affected flights, and many international airlines have said they were avoiding Pakistan.
Kashmir has become one of the most dangerous hot spots in the world, and the recent escalation comes after years of relative calm.
