RAWALPINDI:
Indian troops resorted to unprovoked firing on the civilian population in Jandrot sector along the Line of Control (LoC) on Sunday, critically injuring a woman, the Inter-Services Public Relations said.
According to the military wing of the armed forces, a 28-year-old woman identified as Fareeda received bullet wounds in the stomach when Indian forces opened unprovoked fire from across the LoC.
India has been continuously violating the ceasefire agreement on the LoC and the Sialkot Working Boundary that divides the disputed regions.
Last week, three Pakistani civilians were killed and 11 others injured due to unprovoked firing and shelling by the Indian Border Security Force (BSF) across the Sialkot Working Boundary.
The Foreign Office lodged a protest with India last Tuesday over the ceasefire violations and asked New Delhi to stop such activities and observe the 2003 ceasefire understanding for the cause of peace along the LoC and Working Boundary.
