Pakistani forces opened fire across the Line of Control (LoC) for a seventh straight day, the Indian Army said on Thursday. On the intervening night of April 30 and May 1, Pakistani troops engaged in violating the ceasefire once again at the Line of Control (LoC).
The Indian Army retaliated against the Pakistani troops, who initiated an unprovoked small-arms fire across the LoC.
According to a statement from the Indian Army, the ceasefire violation was carried out opposite areas of Kupwara, Uri, and Akhnoor in Jammu and Kashmir. This latest development comes after tensions escalated between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam terror attack, which occurred on April 22 and claimed the lives of 26 civilians, mostly tourists.
