An Indian soldier was killed in firing by the Pakistan Army across the de facto border in Jammu and Kashmir on Monday, officials said.
The firing occurred in Rajouri on the Line of Control (LoC) that divides Jammu and Kashmir between India and Pakistan.
This is the latest violation by the Pakistan Army of the ceasefire pact the two countries signed in 2003 to maintain peace at borders and the LoC, defence sources said.
India shares 230 km of International Border and 740 km of LoC with Pakistan in Jammu and Kashmir.
