At least 26 people, including a child, were killed when India fired missiles into Pakistani-controlled territory in a series of locations, according to the leader of Pakistan.
At least 10 people have died in Kashmir, according to officials in the Indian-administered region.
India claimed that fighters’ attacks on Wednesday targeted infrastructure in the Indian-controlled Kashmir region of the country that was a month ago.
As three Indian fighter jets descended onto villages in India-controlled Kashmir, Pakistan claimed to have shot down several of them in retaliation.
Since an attack that left 26 people dead, mostly Indian Hindu tourists, at a popular meadow in Kashmir, with some killing men before their wives’ eyes, tensions have soared between the nuclear-armed neighbors.
Islamabad has refuted India’s claim that Pakistan is to blame for backing the attack.
The two countries have waged two wars over Kashmir, which are split between them but each claims it entirely.
Shehbaz Sharif, the prime minister of Pakistan, said his nation would retaliate after the airstrikes on Wednesday.
Pakistan has a right to vigorously respond to this war imposed by India, according to Sharif, who praised the country.
On Wednesday morning, Pakistan summoned India’s charge of commerce to protest, and the nation’s National Security Committee met.
