Pakistan's military on Monday said it had conducted another missile test -- the second in two days and since tensions with India have soared over disputed Kashmir.

"The launch was aimed at ensuring the operational readiness of troops and validating key technical parameters, including the missile's advanced navigation system and enhanced accuracy," the military said in a statement, adding that the surface-to-surface missile had a range of 120 kilometres (75 miles).
