India-Pakistan border shooting raises tensions after two deaths

Two Pakistani nationals were killed and a third wounded near the border in Punjab, according to reports cited by the Associated Press. Accounts of what happened differ: Pakistani outlets said the men crossed a few steps beyond a border marker, while Indian media reported they were suspected of trying to enter India. New Delhi had not commented when AP published its report. The incident has drawn attention because the international Punjab border has generally been quieter than the disputed Kashmir frontier. The two nuclear-armed neighbors have a history of conflict, making the competing accounts and any official response important to watch.
