Fresh gunfire heard at Indian air base near Pakistan border

PATHANKOT, India (AP) — An Associated Press photographer says fresh gunfire has erupted at an Indian air force base near the border with Pakistan where four gunmen and two troops have been killed in the daylong attack.

At least one helicopter could be seen firing at an area inside the Pathankot air force base. Shots could also be heard from inside the base.

Air force spokeswoman Rochelle D’Silva said earlier Saturday that the gunmen entered the living quarters of the base, about 430 kilometers (267 miles) north of New Delhi, but were not able to penetrate the area with fighter helicopters and other equipment.
