Weapons found in Jammu and Kashmir

After a lull of two days, Pakistani troops violated the ceasefire twice today by resorting to heavy firing with automatic and small arms along International Border and Line of Control in Jammu and Poonch districts of Jammu and Kashmir, forcing Indian troops to retaliate.

"In major escalation, Pakistani troops opened unprovoked firing from small arms and automatic weapons at our forward posts in Hamirpur sub-sector in Poonch district of Jammu and Kashmir around 0840 hours," a Defence spokesman said.

The spokesman said the Army troops responded with equal calibre weapons to Pakistan's firing which resulted in intermittent exchanges of fire, he said.

"There was no loss of life or damage to property in the firing on this side of LoC," he said.

"Earlier in another such ceasefire violation, Pakistan Rangers resorted to heavy firing on 5-6 Border Outposts (BoPs) in R S Pura and Arnia sub-sectors in Jammu district around 0200 hours," a BSF officer said.
