New Delhi - NEW DELHI (AP) - Last week's fatal attack on controversial tourists in Kashmir put relations between India and Pakistan at new lows, both hinting at imminent military operations.

India accused Pakistan of supporting the massacre, with 26 people, mainly Indian Hindus, who were killed, which was denied by Pakistan. Since then, both countries have deported diplomats and citizens, ordered the closure of borders and spaces between each other.

The soldiers on both sides actually exchanged fires, and each of them blamed each other for firing first.

Here are several conflicts between the two countries since the bloody division in 1947:
