Indian troops gave an equal retaliation, resulting in exchanges that stopped around 1340 hours, he said, adding there was no report of loss of life or injury. The Indian posts which came under attack are Palli, 485, 485A, Puna and Noyal.
There have been over 90 ceasefire violations by Pakistani troops so far this year. Six jawans were killed and 13 people injured in ceasefire violations and firing by Pakistani troops in forward posts and civilian areas and on patrol parties along the border in over a month.
On September 9, Pakistani troops had fired with small arms at Gamdhir and Mendhar sub-sectors along the LoC.
