Poonch: An Army jawan was injured when Pakistani troops opened heavy fire this evening on Indian positions in the Poonch sector of Jammu and Kashmir in yet another ceasefire violation--the third this month alone.
Armed with heavy machine guns, the troops fired rockets on the Indian forward posts in Krishnaghati sub-sector along the Line of Control, Brigadier Gen Staff (BGF) of 16 Corps S Dua said.
The Pakistani troops fired on the Indian posts for an hour wounding a jawan, he told PTI.
This is the third ceasefire violation by Pakistan this month in Poonch sector.
Indian troops maintained restraint and did not retaliate, Brigadier S Dua said, adding a protest would be lodged tomorrow.
Pakistani troops had fired on Indian posts in Kerni at Jallas sub-sector along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district on October 1 and 2.
In the last one month, the ceasefire was violated by Pakistani troops on September 28 and 29 in the Krishnaghati sub-sector.
