Residents near disputed Kashmir boundary report first lull since escalation between Pakistan, India last week.
Mourners carry the casket of Pakistani prisoner Shakir Ullah, who was killed by Indian inmates in an Indian jail, during his funeral prayer in a village near Sialkot, Pakistan, Sunday, March 3, 2019. Ullah was beaten to death by Indian inmates this month at an Indian jail apparently in retaliation for the Dec. 14, 2018 suicide bombing in Indian-controlled Kashmir.
Many villagers used the calm in Pakistani-held Kashmir to leave their homes in Chakoti area along the so-called Line of Control, the demarcation line that divides the troubled Himalayan region on an Indian and a Pakistani sector, and move to safety. Pakistani government official Moazzam Zafar said some 200 families have already taken shelter in three large government buildings in the territory. Zafar said the authorities were providing warm clothing, bedding, food and medicines, and would establish more such camps.
