Citizen martyred, 9 injured by Indian firing along Working Boundary

RAWALPINDI (92 News) – A citizen was martyred while nine others injured by Indian unprovoked intense fire along Line of Control (LoC) and Working Boundary in Narowal’s Herpal, Charwah and Chaprar Sector on Friday. Indian forces are in a constantly violating ceasefire at the Line of Control (LoC) and Working Boundary. Pakistan Rangers spontaneously reacted to the threat and silenced the guns of the Indian forces. The skirmishes between Pakistan and India have begun to become a routine. Guns have been rather silent at the borders since 2003 ceasefire on LoC until now that the attacks have gained pace, building tension between both the neighbors. On Thursday, Foreign Office summoned the Indian Deputy High Commissioner JP Singh in Islamabad to condemn the unprovoked ceasefire violations by the Indian occupation forces along the Working Boundary in Sialkot Sector. The Indian forces along the Working Boundary are resorting to indiscriminate and unprovoked firing with heavy mortars and automatic weapons since last night on the civilian populated villages in Sialkot. The firing resulted in martyrdom of two innocent civilian ladies and injuries to five others, including three females. The Foreign Office said that despite calls for restraint, India continues to indulge in ceasefire violations. This unprecedented escalation in ceasefire violations by India is continuing since 2017 when they committed more than 1900 ceasefire violations.
