印巴边境爆发严重冲突 　　

SRINAGAR, Indian-controlled Kashmir, Oct. 23 (Xinhua) -- An Indian border guard of Border Security Force (BSF) was killed and six others wounded in skirmishes with Pakistani border guards on the international border in Kashmir, officials said Wednesday.

　　The border guards targeted each other in R S Pura, Arnia, Ramgarh and Akhnoor sectors1 Tuesday night using heavy artillery2 and mortars3, and the exchange continued until Wednesday morning.
　　"One BSF man was killed and six to seven others were wounded after Pakistani Rangers4 violated ceasefire and targeted our posts, " said Vinod Yadav, a spokesman for BSF. "Our side also retaliated5 effectively."
　　Reports said border guards of the two nuclear neighbors exchanged fire at 50 locations along the international border, raining shells on each other.
　　The skirmishes came hours after India's Home Minister Shushilkumar Shinde visited the restive6 region to review security along the line-of-control (LoC) and international border (IB).
　　Locals said the overnight skirmish was the biggest ceasefire violation7 so far in the past several days. The panic-stricken villagers at Jasso Chak and S M Pur fled from their houses for safer places.
　　Skirmishes between troops posted on the LoC have been going on almost on daily basis since Aug. 6, with the majority of exchanges taking place on the LoC in Poonch. However for the past several days similar skirmishes are going on also along the IB in the region.
　　Both sides have suffered troop as well as civilian8 casualties during the standoff on the 720 km long LoC and 198 km long IB.
　　LoC is a de facto border that divides Kashmir into India and Pakistan controlled parts.
　　New Delhi and Islamabad in 2003 agreed to observe cease-fire along the IB and LoC in Kashmir. Though some violations9 have been reported on both sides, the cease-fire remains10 in effect.
　　Both New Delhi and Islamabad blame each other for resorting to unprovoked firing on the LoC and IB.
