JAMMU: Thwarting a potential infiltration bid by terrorists trying to breach the border, alert Army personnel stationed along the Line of Control (LoC) in Sunderbani sector of J&K’s Rajouri district opened fire early Wednesday on observing unusual movement in the forward area.
“Following the firing, the area was placed under heightened surveillance with additional troops and high-tech monitoring equipment deployed to track any further developments,” an official said.
On Feb 16, Army personnel effectively retaliated to an unprovoked ceasefire violation by Pakistan army along the LoC in Poonch’s Gulpur sector. Earlier on Feb 8, Indian troops similarly shot back at suspected terrorists who had opened fire along the LoC in Rajouri district.
