Director-General (DG) Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) Major-General Babar Iftikhar on Monday morning said that a two-year old boy, identified as Muhammad Haseeb, embraced martyrdom as Indian troops resorted to unprovoked ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC).
Four others, including a 72 year-old woman, sustained serious injuries over the past twenty-four hours in the ceasefire violations as Indian troops used artillery and heavy mortars to target civilians, DG ISPR Maj Gen Iftikhar added. Provoked shelling at LoC Pakistan Army shot down an Indian quadcopter last week that violated the Pakistani airspace in Sankh Sector along the Line of Control (LoC), the ISPR confirmed. “In this provocative act, Indian quadcopter intruded 600 meters inside Pakistan’s territory for conducting surveillance,” the military’s media wing said in a statement. “This blatant act was aggressively responded to by Pakistan Army troops shooting down Indian quadcopter. Such unwarranted acts by Indian Army are clear violation of established norms,” it added.
