ISLAMABAD: Pakistani security officials on Tuesday denied any involvement in the deaths of five Indian soldiers in an attack along the disputed border in Jammu and Kashmir.

Five Indian soldiers were killed in an attack along the disputed border in Jammu and Kashmir, the state chief minister Omar Abdullah claimed on Tuesday.

   

“Was briefed early this morning about news that 5 of our soldiers had been killed on the LoC. My heartfelt condolences to their next of kin,” Abdullah said in a Tweet, referring to the Line of Control dividing the two countries in the region.

“There was no indiscriminate firing from our side,” one Pakistani security official said
