The armies of India and Pakistan on Tuesday exchanged heavy fire and shelling along the Line of Control (LoC) in Rajouri district of Jammu and Kashmir.
The exchange comes after cross-border firing left three persons, including a BSF officer and two civilians, dead in Poonch district.
A Jammu-based army spokesman said that at about 11:30 AM, Pakistan initiated unprovoked ceasefire violation by shelling with artillery, mortars and firing of small arms along LoC in Nowshera sector.
“Indian army is retaliating effectively,” he said.
