Pakistani Rangers targeted BSF troops in unprovoked firing Tuesday morning. Officials said the forces gave a 'befitting reply' to the firing in the Arnia sector of Jammu district.
There should be no doubt that the flawed national security strategy pursued by India over the last seven years requires a course correction. It seems Modi govt has decided to do it now.
Rajesh Mishra, Inspector General of BSF in Kashmir, said the firing caused loss of lives & destruction of civilian property. Four soldiers, a BSF jawan & six civilians were killed.
Six civilians lost their lives, while four security forces personnel were injured in the firing by Pakistan during multiple ceasefire violations between Gurez and Uri sectors in J&K.
It’s the second truce brokered by Russia this month that has failed to stop fighting between the countries over the breakaway region of Nagorno-Karabakh.
The Pakistan Army initiated unprovoked ceasefire violation by firing from small arms and intense shelling of mortars along the LoC in Poonch, a defence spokesperson said.
Indian govt officials last month skipped Turkish National Day celebrations in Delhi, in a message to Ankara following its support for Islamabad, particularly during Operation Sindoor.
