Five Indian soldiers have been shot dead in Indian-administered Jammu and Kashmir, the chief minister of the disputed region says.

五名印度士兵在印度管辖的查谟和克什米尔地区被枪杀。

Both Pakistan and India claim Kashmir in its entirety

India's army accused Pakistan over the incident, saying troops had "entered the Indian area and ambushed¹" an army patrol in the Poonch area.

A Pakistani military official told the BBC that "no fire took place" from their side.

Claimed by both countries, Kashmir has been a flashpoint for over 60 years.

In January, several deadly cross-border attacks plunged² the neighbours into the worst crisis in relations in years.

The latest incident comes as the two sides are preparing for peace talks, the first since a new Pakistani government took office.

The chief minister of Indian-administered Kashmir, Omar Abdullah, said such incidents "don't help efforts to normalise or even improve relations with Pakistan and call in to question the Pakistan government's recent overtures³".

A top Indian army officer told the BBC that a group of "elite⁴ commandos" from the Pakistani army breached⁵ the line of control on Tuesday morning and ambushed an Indian army patrol in the Poonch sector⁶ of Jammu region.

The officer said one Indian soldier was injured in "unprovoked firing" by Pakistani soldiers in a separate incident in Udhampur region on Monday.

A Pakistani military official described the Indian allegations as "baseless" and said there was no firing from the Pakistani side.

India and Pakistan agreed a ceasefire along the line of control, which divides the region, in November 2003.

But both sides have blamed each other for occasional cross-border fire, as a result of which several soldiers and civilians⁷ have been killed or wounded on both sides.

After the January incidents, relations between the sides deteriorated⁸ so sharply that there were fears that a fledgling（无经验的人） peace process under way since February last year could unravel⁹.

Although both sides denied provoking the clashes along the border, eventually both India and Pakistan agreed to de-escalate tensions.

Thousands of people have been killed in Indian-administered Kashmir since an armed revolt against Indian rule erupted in 1989.
