 "Firing continues at LoC for 6th day, India gives 'proportionate' response to Pakistan's provocations")
The Indian Army on Wednesday gave a ‘proportionate’ response after the Pakistan Army opened unprovoked small arms fire at several locations along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir, marking the sixth straight day of cross-border firing . The flare-up follows the Pahalgam terror attack, in which 26 innocent people were killed by Pakistan-based terrorists.
The firing occurred in the Naushera and Sunderbani sectors of Rajouri, the Akhnoor and Pargwal sectors in Jammu, and parts of Baramulla and Kupwara. Indian troops responded quickly and in a measured way, officials said.
“During the night of 29–30 April 2025, Pakistan Army posts initiated unprovoked small-arms fire across the Line of Control opposite the Naushera, Sunderbani and Akhnoor sectors in the Union Territory of Jammu & Kashmir. Indian Army troops responded swiftly and proportionately,” the Indian Army said in a statement.
Since the tragic Pahalgam terror attack on April 22, Pakistan has been continuously firing at the Line of Control (LoC), facing a strong response and violating the ceasefire.
