Security forces on Thursday killed five LeT terrorists making an infiltration bid across the LoC in Kupwara district and responded befittingly to unprovoked firing by Pakistan Rangers along the International Border in Jammu, officials said. A Border Security Force (BSF) jawan and four civilians were injured as the Pakistani troops targeted five Indian posts along the IB in the Arnia and R S Pura sectors at night, a senior official said.
The ceasefire violation in the Arnia sector came hours after a joint operation by police and the Army along the Line of Control in the Machhil sector of Kupwara. The senior BSF official said the Pakistan Rangers opened unprovoked firing at the Indian posts around 8 pm and Indian troops retaliated "befittingly". The injured jawan was shifted to the GMC Hospital in Jammu for specialised treatment, he said, adding that the exchange of fire was going on intermittently.
