2 Pakistan Army Soldiers Killed By Indian Shelling Along The LOC

Two Pakistan Army soldiers were killed in Indian shelling along the volatile Line of Control (LoC) in Dewa Sector, the military’s media wing ISPR confirmed via a tweet.

In a tweet, Director General of Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor identified the martyred soldiers as Naib Subedar Kandero and Sepoy Ehsan.

The ISPR claimed that the Pakistan Army in retaliation damaged an Indian post in Haji Pir Sector and killed three Indian soldiers including a subedar. The Indian Army’s response came after a Junior Commissioned Officer was killed after Pakistan violated ceasefire in Rampur sector of Jammu and Kashmir, official sources told news agency PTI.

On Monday, Pakistan Army Chief Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa visited the LoC where he said that the armed forces are “fully prepared to thwart any misadventure” or aggression for the country’s defence.
