Pakistan army resorts to heavy shelling along LoC in Poonch

JAMMU: The Pakistan army violated ceasefire twice on Wednesday and resorted to heavy firing and mortar shelling in forward areas along the Line of Control in Poonch district, officials said.

The Indian Army retaliated befittingly, they said.

“Around 6:10 pm today, the Pakistan army initiated unprovoked ceasefire violation by firing with small arms and shelling with mortars along the LoC in Shahpur and Kirni sectors in Poonch district,” a defence spokesperson said. (AGENCIES)
