“Using automatics and small arms, Pakistani soldiers resorted to indiscriminate firing at midnight on Indian Army posts along the LoC in Poonch district”, said a Defence spokesman.
The Indian guns fell silent as the Pakistan Army effectively retaliated.
The police said that intermittent firing was still going on in the area. On September 2, Pakistan troops violated ceasefire by firing on forward army posts along LoC in Akhnoor sector in Jammu district. The matter has been raised several times at global forums, but Pakistan is defiant.
On Friday, Indian troops had opened fire in Thob and Bhimber sectors in Azad Kashmir along the LoC. The latter responded appropriately.
This the second ceasefire violation by Pakistan in less than a week.
