India has launched a major pre- strike on Pakistan, saying it targeted nine sites across Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir early on Wednesday 7 May.
According to a spokesperson for the Pakistani milit, at least eight civilians were killed in the pre- airstrikes.
Video footage shows widespread destruction in the city of Muzaffarabad, the capital of Pakistan-administered Kashmir.
Tensions have escalated sharply between the nuclear-armed neighbours following last month’s militant attack on tourists in the Indian-administered portion of Kashmir.
India has accused Pakistan of supporting the attackers, a claim Islamabad has denied.
