They violated ceasefire 5 times in July.
But when in the process of giving cover fire to infiltrators one of their men is killed they will go around the world shouting Indians forces killed our man.
Typical response.

Pakistan violates ceasefire, firing along LoC in Poonch

This is fifth ceasefire violation by Pakistan in July this year.

Pakistani troops violated the ceasefire by targeting Indian posts along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch district with RPGs and heavy machine guns on Saturday morning, leading to a heavy exchange of fire.

"Pak troops have targeted Indian posts by firing rocket propelled grenades (RPGs) and heavy machine guns along the LoC in Doda Battalion forward area in Poonch district since 0730 hours today," a senior Army officer said.

Senior Army officials were monitoring the situation following the incident and troops have been asked in other forward areas to intensify round the clock vigilance.

The firing triggered panic among the people in the area, especially in Shahpur Kerni forward belt in Poonch where it stretched for five hours.

This is fifth ceasefire violation in July this year.
