Indian Army has conducted punitive fire assaults on Pakistan Army posts along the Line of Control (LoC) in Nowshera sector of Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajauri district. Addressing a press conference today (23 May), Major General Ashok Narula of the Indian Army said several posts of the Pakistan Army were damaged in the assault.


The Army has released a video showing punitive assault on a Pakistan Army post.

Retaliation comes days after the Pakistani Army resorted to firing and shelling close to the LoC in Nowshera. Ever since unprovoked shelling from Pakistan began last week, at least six people have lost their lives. According to reports, nearly 1,700 civilians have been evacuated from this area.
