Associated Press

   SRINAGAR, INDIA - Indian and Pakistani soldiers on Tuesday traded heavy
   gunfire across a cease-fire line dividing Kashmir between the hostile
   neighbors, leaving one Indian soldier and one Pakistani civilian dead
   and several others wounded, officials said.

   An Indian army statement said the Indian fatality occurred in
   Sunderbani sector.
   Police said a second cross-firing incident between Indian and Pakistani
   soldiers in northern Kashmir triggered panic among the villagers.
   In Pakistan, the military accused Indian troops of resorting to
   unprovoked firing of mortars and artillery guns and deliberately
   targeting the civil population in Kashmir.
   It said in a statement that one civilian was killed and nine others,
   including women and children, were wounded. All of the injured have
   been evacuated to hospitals.
