The Army detected and defused three mortar shells fired by Pakistani troops in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district, officials said on Tuesday.
Pakistan on Tuesday resorted to a ceasefire violation along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir leading to retaliatory firing by Indian troops, defence sources said.
An Army man was killed and four others injured as Pakistani troops targeted forward posts and villages along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district on Tuesday, officials said.
Pakistan initiated unprovoked firing by shelling with mortars and firing of small arms along LoC in Sunderbani's Keri sector at about 0530 hours today, army sources said.
Earlier on Thursday, Pakistan fired on forward posts along the LoC in Poonch and targeted Kaswa and Kerni areas. The Indian Army retaliated effectively, an official said, adding there were no injuries or casualties.
Gone are the days when the governments in the country used to raise a white flag whenever troops from Pakistan launched attacks in violation of ceasefire, said the home minister.
Five rounds of fire were opened by Pak snipper following which the jawan was injured.
