J&K: Heavy shelling by Pakistan in Rajouri; exchange of fire underway

Pakistan again violated ceasefire by carrying out heavy shelling in Rajouri (J&K). Exchange of fire by both countries is underway. Pakistan has repeatedly been violating ceasefire across LoC for last few days.

Earlier, Pakistan violated the ceasefire along the Line of Control in Noushera sector and RS Pura sector on International Border by targeting Indian positions and civilian population with mortars and small arm fire, prompting the Indian side to give a "befitting response".

There have been over 40 ceasefire violations from the Pakistani side since the Indian side carried out surgical strikes inside Pakistan occupied Kashmir targeting terror launching pads, post the attack on an army camp in Uri on September 18.
