As Pakistani shell hit their home, 10-Year-old ran to his mother | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, May 23: A 10-year-old boy was among five civilians killed today as Pakistan violated ceasefire yet again, firing long-range mortars that hit residential areas near the international border in Jammu region. This comes a day after an eight-month-old was killed in another border village in Akhnoor. As shelling intensified on Galad village that's right next to the border, Krishna ran to his mother who was in the kitchen. That's when a shell landed in their home, killing him instantly. His mother and brother are in critical condition. Like many children in the area, Krishna was at home as schools close to the border have been shut for nearly a week since an escalation in firing from across the border. |
