Pakistan targets several areas along Line of Control in J-K; Army gives befitting reply

Amid heightened tensions following the Pahalgam terror attack, Pakistan on Friday morning violated ceasefire at multiple locations along Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir.

Sources said Pakistan used small arms to target Indian posts on this side of the border. As per initial information, ceasefire violations took place in the Leepa valley in Kashmir among some other areas.

Sources in intelligence informed, “There were incidents of small arm firing at some places on Line of Control initiated by Pakistan. The violations were effectively responded to and there were no reports of any casualties on our side”.

The firing by Pakistan Army comes amid rising tensions between the two sides following the dastardly attack at the tourist resort of Pahalgam in Kashmir, where 26 civilians were killed by terrorists.
