Pakistan targets forward areas along LoC in J&K’s Poonch for second day

JAMMU: The Pakistan Army fired mortar bombs at forward posts along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district for the second day on Sunday, a defence spokesperson said. No casualty was reported in the Pakistani firing, he said.
The latest ceasefire violation by the neighbouring nation took place in Balakot and Mendhar sectors, prompting a befitting retaliation from the Indian Army, he said.
The firing and intense shelling with mortars from across the border in the two sectors started at around 12.50 pm and was going on when last reports were received.
On Saturday, an Indian soldier was killed and three others were injured in heavy firing and shelling in Degwar sector of Poonch district.
