‘Indian army opened unprovoked firing, violated ceasefire’

Pakistan army said in Islamabad that one of its soldier was killed and another critically injured in ‘unprovoked’ firing by Indian troops.

“The incident took place on Rawlakot’s Nezapir sector near the LoC at about 10:30 am. Soldier Asim Iqbal was killed and another Naik Mohammad Khan critically wounded in the Indian firing,” Pakistan’s army spokesman said. .

He said Indian army opened unprovoked firing and violated ceasefire along Line of Control (LoC).

RIP................... but kisi ka sir kalam kar le jaana aur firing me maut hona alag baat hai.... firing to border me hota hai rahta hai..

 

[kurup]

RIP to the pakistani soldier .

If pakistan has not violated the the truce by starting the firing , the loss of life could have been avoided .

 

[Umair Nawaz]

The answer should be given.

I have a question for everyone. What would India gain by unprovoked firing. EVEN IF we wanted to send weapons and money to pakistani rebels like BLA, we would send it through Afghan border not through Indo pak border. We all know who needs such cover fire. If you start firing, we would retaliate. If one of yours die in that retaliation, neither India nor Indian Army is responsible.

 

[kaykay]

Another ceasefire violation today in Samba sectore. 2nd violation today. BSF is retaliating with heavy fire.

@Umair Nawaz Actually this was the answer for firing on Indian posts 5 times this month. You asked for it.

P.S. - Is any member realizing as yet that PA is losing soldiers for the sake of infiltrating some
blind weed-smoking jihadis across the border?

Truly it must suck to be a PA troop - knowing that you are just a puppet and a human shield for
weed-smoking jihadis. I wonder if your govt. and PA HQ cares more about jihadis than your soldiers

And these weed-smokers who manage to infiltrate to J&K are either killed or captured within a
couple of months as they're activity inside India does not go unnoticed by Army intel.

@nuclearpak @Jungibaaz

u know what to do.

Go to the border, you will find IA waiting for your answer.

Yes the great answers in which u were moaning that Pak Army had cut off your heads
