Jammu/IBNS: A massive fire broke out in a forest near Jammu on Thursday evening. This is an addition to the multiple incidents of fire in the region this week.

A huge stretch of forests in Nagrota caught fire this evening and the blaze is rapidly spreading, officials told the media.

On Wednesday, a forest fire triggered several landmine explosions along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district.

Another massive fire broke out on the same day in the agriculture fields along International Border (IB) in Jammu.
