Two Pakistani civilians were killed after India’s Border Security Force (BSF) allegedly opened unprovoked fire near the international border in Kasur, according to Pakistani security officials.

The incident reportedly took place in the Ganda Singh Wala area, where BSF personnel allegedly fired across the border without warning.

Pakistani officials said the victims were civilians and that the incident occurred near populated areas. The firing has raised fresh concerns over tensions along the Pakistan-India border.

Authorities have condemned the reported incident and said Pakistani forces remain alert to developments along the border.

The latest episode comes amid strained relations between Pakistan and India, with both sides maintaining heightened security along the international boundary.

Cross-border firing has previously resulted in civilian casualties and heightened tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.

Pakistani authorities are expected to seek further clarification over the incident, while details surrounding the circumstances and identities of the victims continue to emerge.

The development underscores the fragile security situation along the Pakistan-India border and the potential risks faced by communities living close to the heavily monitored frontier.
