Pakistan once again violated ceasefire in Shahpur and Qasba areas of Poonch district in Jammu and Kashmir on Sunday. The firing began around 4 pm to which the Indian Army is retaliating befittingly, a defence spokesperson.

On Saturday, the Pakistan Army targeted forward posts and villages along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir's Poonch district, violating the ceasefire for the second consecutive day, a defence spokesperson said.
