Nine dead in indo pakistani war over kashmir pakistan says
You're referring to the recent escalation of tensions between India and Pakistan over the disputed region of Kashmir.
According to reports, at least nine people have been killed in the ongoing conflict between Indian and Pakistani forces in Kashmir. The clashes began on February 26, 2019, when India launched airstrikes against what it said were terrorist camps in Pakistan, in response to a suicide bombing in Kashmir that killed over 40 Indian paramilitary police.
Pakistan responded to the Indian airstrikes by shooting down an Indian fighter jet and capturing its pilot, Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman. The pilot was later released by Pakistan as a "peace gesture".
The conflict has escalated into a full-blown war, with both sides exchanging heavy artillery fire and engaging in intense battles along the Line of Control (LoC), the de facto border between India and Pakistan in Kashmir.
The situation remains tense, with both countries trading accusations of aggression and human rights violations. The international community has called for restraint and a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
