The Pakistani Army said Thursday that Indian troops had killed another Pakistani soldier in the latest round of clashes in Kashmir, the disputed Himalayan region. In a sudden escalation of longstanding tensions this week, each side has bitterly accused the other of violating the de facto border in Kashmir, which both sides claim in its entirety. In recent days, India said two of its soldiers had been killed by the Pakistanis, and Pakistan had earlier accused India of killing one of its soldiers. The clashes have occurred amid tentative steps by the two nations to improve relations.
