CCTV News:Since July, India and Pakistan have frequently exchanged fire along the actual line of control between India and Pakistan in Kashmir.

On the 17th, there was an incident in which Indian soldiers shot and killed the commander, and it was only a mobile phone that triggered the bloody case.

According to "India Express" reported on the 20th, this tragedy happened at a post in Baramula district in northern Indian-controlled Kashmir. At about 12: 15 noon on the 17th, an Indian army soldier used a mobile phone while on duty, and the inspected major was found and reprimanded. When there was a dispute over the confiscation of the mobile phone, the screen of the mobile phone was broken, so the soldiers became angry and immediately picked up the AK47 rifle and killed the major on the spot.

Why can a mobile phone trigger a bloody case? According to the "Kashmir Watch Network" headquartered in Europe, in the Indian army in India-controlled Kashmir, similar bloody conflicts occur from time to time. Many Indian soldiers did not die at the hands of the "enemy", but they were killed by comrades-in-arms because of various disputes:
In 2011, a fire broke out in the 18th Brigade of the Central Reserve Police Force of India, resulting in three soldiers killed and one seriously injured.
In 2013, a patrol soldier shot at his sleeping comrades in the camp with a rifle, resulting in two deaths and two injuries.
In 2016, two Indian army soldiers shot at each other, resulting in one death and one injury.
According to experts’ analysis, the mental stress of Indian soldiers has greatly increased due to reasons such as being away from family members and harsh environment, which has led to frequent incidents of "military camps cannibalizing each other". The BBC quoted Indian military sources as saying that the morale of the troops stationed in Indian-controlled Kashmir was "very low", and many soldiers gradually became uncomfortable with the role played by Indian troops in Kashmir, "fearing that they would actually become occupying forces".
Indian-controlled Kashmir garrison used civilians as "human shields" to deal with protests.
The Indian army tied a local to a military vehicle as a "human shield"
At the beginning of 2017, the Indian government launched a series of investigations on soldiers stationed in Indian-controlled Kashmir. Some soldiers complained that the troops had poor food and often went hungry, and blamed this on the "corruption" of the military. In April 2017, during the parliamentary by-election in Srinagar, India-controlled Kashmir, violent protests occurred in the local area. The Indian army tied a local person to a military vehicle as a "human shield", which attracted public criticism. The commander involved said that this was to protect the soldiers from the local "mob", and the commander was not punished afterwards, but was praised. Media analysis said that the military’s move is precisely to boost morale.
Pakistani military: In 2017, India violated the ceasefire agreement 580 times, the highest in the calendar year.
Since the partition of India and Pakistan in 1947, India and Pakistan have been in constant conflict over Kashmir. The two sides have repeatedly exchanged fire near the actual line of control and accused each other of violating the ceasefire agreement. According to the Pakistani military, India has violated the ceasefire agreement near the actual line of control as many as 580 times this year, the highest in history. On the 19th, the Indian army shelled Palestinian military strongholds and civilians again, causing many deaths, and the Pakistani military immediately said that it would launch a counterattack.
