Since early Saturday, multiple explosions have been reported along the Line of Control, the de facto border dividing India and Pakistan in the Kashmir region.
BBC journalists have heard blasts in Srinagar and Jammu, both located in Indian-administered Kashmir. The origin of these explosions remains unclear.
According to local media, similar sounds were also heard in Udhampur, within Indian-administered Kashmir, and in Punjab’s Pathankot — areas that house Indian military facilities which Pakistan claims to have targeted.
