Jammu (NVI): In yet another ceasefire violation, Pakistani troops today shelled forward posts and villages along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir, defence officials said.
“At about 1100 hours, Pak initiated unprovoked ceasefire violation by firing with small arms & shelling with mortars along LoC in Shahpur, Kirni & Qasba sectors, District Poonch (J&K),” they said, adding that the Indian Army is retaliating befittingly.
Pakistani Army targetted forward areas in the same district yesterday while firing with small arms along LoC in Shahpur sector.
Pakistan has been violating ceasefire along LoC almost daily nowadays, even as the whole world is grappling with coronavirus outbreak. Despite appeals for a Ramzan truce by the border residents, to respect the sanctity of the fasting month, Pakistani troops have been resorting to unprovoked ceasefire violations every now and then.
