Pakistan Violates Ceasefire In Poonch Sector Of J&K, Indian Army Retaliates

In yet another incident of ceasefire violation, the Pakistan troops resorted to unprovoked firing along the Line of Control in Shahpur and Kirni sectors of Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir on Saturday. According to initial reports, the Pakistani troops used small arms and fired mortars shells targeting the Indian positions along the LoC about 1530 hours.

The unprovoked firing from the Pakistani side evoked a strong response from the Indian Army, which retaliated heavily. In its nefarious design to disrupt peace in the Kashmir Valley, Pakistan has violated ceasefire over 2,500 times between January to November 15 in 2019 in the border areas of Jammu and Kashmir along the Line of Control (LoC).
