Residents and officials in the disputed Kashmir region say there was overnight border fighting between Pakistani and Indian troops, despite a ceasefire to stop a conflict between the two countries.

India says its strikes into Pakistan-administered Kashmir and Pakistan on Wednesday killed more than 100 militants.

A ceasefire agreed between India and Pakistan appears to be holding, with both sides stressing their commitment to the surprise truce which halted the worst fighting in decades between the nuclear-armed neighbors.
