The Indian government says it has launched an attack on nine sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir.

Pakistani military spokesperson Ahmed Sharif says seven people have died including at least two children.

Sharif says the strikes hit multiple locations, including a mosque.

He says this is flagrant violation of international law.

Relations between India and Pakistan - both nuclear-armed states - have declined sharply following a deadly militant attack on tourists in Kashmir last month.
