 "Pakistan Army resorts to heavy shelling on LoC")
Pakistan Army on Wednesday resorted to heavy shelling and firing at Indian posts along the line of control (LoC) in the Jammu region.
Pakistan Army initiated indiscriminate ceasefire violation since 9 am on Indian Army posts along the LoC in Bhimber Gali, Krishna Ghati and Naushera sectors of Poonch and Rajouri districts, Defence spokesman Lt Col Manish Mehta told IANS.
"They are using 120 mm mortars and automatics to target our positions, our posts are responding strongly and giving a befitting reply," he added.
The latest ceasefire violation comes a day after three Indian army soldiers were killed in a border action team (BAT) operation along the LoC in Machil sector of the Kashmir Valley.
The body of one of the three slain soldiers was mutilated.
Indian army has vowed retribution against the "cowardly act by Pakistan army".
