The Pakistan army violated ceasefire in four sectors of Rajouri and Poonch districts this morning.
"Forty-five to fifty students of the government high school in Sehar in Naushera sector are trapped due to heavy shelling," Deputy Commissioner (Rajouri) Shahid Iqbal Choudhary told PTI.
He said the school is located at a height which had made the task of evacuation difficult.
