The Pakistan army targeted forward posts and civilian areas along the LoC in Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajouri district Monday, violating the ceasefire in this region for six days during the last week, defence spokesperson said.
The spokesman said Indian troops retaliated strongly. “At about 1830 hours, Pakistan initiated unprovoked ceasefire violation by firing of small arms along the LoC in Nowshera sector,” he said.
During the last week, the Pakistan army resorted to firing and mortar shelling along the Line of Control (LoC) in forward posts and civilian areas in Rajouri and Poonch districts.
