This incident happens days after India carried out a surgical strike on Pakistan in order to avenge the death of 19 Indian soldiers in the Uri attack.
On 18 September, Pakistan-based terrorists allegedly stormed into an army camp in Jammu and Kashmir's Uri region and attacked the Indian soldiers.
India blames Pakistan for carrying out frequent terrorist attacks on its soil while Pakistan denies all charges.
Moreover, Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif refused to condemn the attack even after US and the UK asked the leader to do so.
According to IANS, Nawaz Sharif counter questioned both the world powers over their silence regarding the Kashmir unrest, which claimed lives of nearly 90 people since 9 July.
However, the Pakistani leader offered full cooperation to probe the incident. He also said that the attack was an "Indian false flag operation" carried to divert the world attention from Kashmir issue and malign Pakistan's image.
