Share via E-Mail Bookmark NEW DELHI: India and Pakistan have fought two wars and had countless skirmishes over Kashmir, the Himalayan region claimed in full by both nuclear-armed rivals. But rarely have ground troops or air forces crossed the heavily militarised de facto border between the two foes, known as the Line of Control , in Kashmir. Advertisement Here are some of the major clashes between the South Asian enemies over the flashpoint mountainous territory.

1971 India and Pakistan fight another war, not over Kashmir but over Islamabad's rule in then East Pakistan, with New Delhi supporting Bengali nationalists seeking independence for what would become Bangladesh. India's air force conducts bombing raids inside Pakistan. 1984 Indian forces seize the Siachen Glacier, a remote and uninhabited territory high in the Karakoram Range also claimed by Pakistan.
