Tensions have flared again along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir, with the Indian Army retaliating to a ceasefire violation initiated by Pakistan. The exchange of fire occurred in the Poonch sector, with the firing lasting for approximately 15 minutes.

According to official sources, Pakistani troops engaged in unprovoked firing, targeting forward Indian positions along the LoC. The Indian Army responded strongly and effectively to the Pakistani aggression.

While the exchange of fire led to heightened tension in the area, initial reports indicate that there were no casualties on the Indian side.

This recent ceasefire violation follows a period of relative calm after India and Pakistan agreed to halt military action along the border. However, sporadic incidents of cross-border firing have occurred, threatening the ceasefire agreement. On July 30, the Indian Army conducted operation 'ShivShakti' and prevented two Pakistan-backed Lashkar-e-Taiba militants from crossing the border.

The situation remains tense, and further details are awaited as both sides monitor the developments along the LoC.
