SRINAGAR, Indian-controlled Kashmir, Sept. 18 (Xinhua) -- Indian and Pakistani armies exchanged fire on the Line of Control (LoC) in Indian-controlled Kashmir, Indian officials said Tuesday.

Indian army also fired in retaliation, he said, adding that no loss of life or damage to property was reported in this exchange. Enditem
