Pakistan says Indian troops have fired across the Line of Control in disputed Kashmir, killing 2 civilians as some security restrictions were lifted in the main city of Srinagar.
A Kashmiri school staff member cleans a deserted classroom in Srinagar, Indian controlled Kashmir, Monday, Aug. 19, 2019. Restrictions continue in much of Indian-administered Kashmir, despite India's government saying it was gradually restoring phone lines and easing a security lockdown that's been in place for nearly two weeks.
Restrictions were eased in parts of Srinagar, where schools for students from preschool to fifth grade were set to reopen after a two-week security lockdown. Paramilitary soldiers armed with assault rifles stood guard at checkpoints, allowing a trickle of vehicular and pedestrian traffic to pass. Many shops and offices remained closed.
Pakistan’s foreign ministry said in a statement Monday that civilian casualties occurred Sunday because of “unprovoked cease-fire violations” by India in the border villages of Hot Spring and Chirikot. Talking to journalists late Sunday in the city of Multan, he challenged Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to hold a vote to determine whether Indian and Kashmiri people support or reject the changes his government made to Kashmir’s status.
