Pakistan shells forward posts along LoC in Poonch

Meanwhile, the Pakistan army on Tuesday targeted forward posts along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district with mortar shells.

The Indian Army effectively retaliated. 

An army officer said, "Pakistan army initiated unprovoked and indiscriminate firing from 0700 hours along the Line of Control in Krishna Ghati sector using small arms, automatics and mortars."

The Indian Army retaliated strongly, effectively and proportionately to the unprovoked ceasefire violation, he said.

Pakistani troops have violated the ceasefire along the LoC and the IB over 650 times this year.
