The heavy exchange of fire continued for several hours and was continuing till Tuesday evening.A police officer said many shells landed near civilian areas in Nowshera, a border area located on the banks of Manawer river, some 125 km from here.

"We have noticed UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) coming 100 metres upto the border...may be they (Pakistani forces) want to check our preparedness but I can assure you that we are fully capable of giving a befitting reply and we will not allow any nefarious design of terrorists to succeed," BSF Director General KK Sharma said..
