Six districts of Azad Kashmir namely Haveli Kahuta, Poonch, Kotli, Bhimber, Hattian Bala and neelum Valley are located alongside the Line of Control.
Frustrated by its failed bid to suppress the freedom movement of Kashmiris, India targets civilians alongside the border and Pakistani army check posts.
