Another ceasefire violation by Indian troops along Line of Control (LoC) on Thursday left an elderly woman dead, said Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).  

Indian troops targeted civilian population with mortars and heavy weapons, the ISPR said adding that the 55-year-old-woman sustained serious injuries.

This year, India has committed more than 2,000 ceasefire violations, claiming many lives and injuring may citizens seriously.

In August, the DG ISPR had said that despite Covid-19 pandemic and UN secretary-general appeal, Indian forces have intensified ceasefire violations targeting the civilian population.

“The Pakistan Army always gives a befitting response to Indian violation but being a professional army we only target their military posts.”
