| Pak troops open another front in Kashmir, violates ceasefire | | | Early Times Report
Srinagar, Sept 29: After violating ceasefire twice in Jammu since yesterday, Pakistani troops opened another front this time in north Kashmir, targeting forward Indian posts near the Line of Control (LoC) in Naugam sector today.
Official sources said Pak troops violated 2003 ceasefire and resorted to indiscriminate firing with automatic weapons, targeting two forward posts on LoC in Naugam sector today.
They said firing continued for some time and there was no loss of life or injury on this side of the LoC.
However, it was not immediately clear whether Indian troops also retaliated as defence ministry spokesman was not available to give details about the ceasefire violation by Pak troops.
Sources said security forces guarding the border are already on high alert to foil any infiltration attempt from across the LoC, where more than 200 militants are waiting at launch pads to sneak into this side from POK before the higher reaches are closed due to snowfall.
After the ceasefire violation today, security forces have launched a search operation in the entire woods near the LoC to make sure that no militant sneak into this side under the cover of firing by Pak troops.
This was the second ceasefire violation by Pak troops after fidayeen attack on Army Brigade headquarter in Uri that left 18 soldiers dead and as many injured on September 18.
Later on September 20 Pak troops violated ceasefire in the same sector. There was however, no damage on this side |
