J&K: India guns down three Pak soldiers after Pakistan violates ceasefire across LoC in Poonch

The Indian Army on Friday provided a befitting reply in response to the firing by Pakistani forces in the Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir. It is to be noted that this is the third in the sixth consecutive day of firing and shelling by Pakistani troops along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir.

According to the latest inputs, at least 3-4 soldiers of Pakistani forces have reportedly been killed and five are said to have been injured in the retaliatory firing by the Indian Army. The Indian troops have also inflicted heavy firing on Pakistan Army posts and damaged them. 

A day before, on May 7, a civilian was injured and two houses suffered damage when the Pakistan Army shelled forward posts and villages along the Line of Control (LoC) in three sectors of Poonch, drawing retaliation from the Indian Army, a defense spokesperson said. One civilian, Nisar Ali, a resident of Qasba village, was injured in the shelling by Pakistan and was hospitalised, officials said.

Further details are awaited
