Media: Pakistan Army destroys Indian border post in retaliation for ceasefire breach VIDEO
Pakistan security forces delivered a robust response to India’s unprovoked ceasefire violation along the Line of Control (LoC), destroying an Indian checkpost after late-night aggression on April 29-30, military sources said.
The tensions persist between the nuclear-armed arch-rivals amidst the deadly Pahalgam attack, Caliber.Az reports, citing foreign media.
According to security officials, Indian troops breached the ceasefire agreement by resorting to unprovoked small arms fire in the Kiani and Mandal sectors. The Pakistan Army retaliated with precision, neutralising the threat and silencing Indian forces.
Security sources reported that Pakistan’s retaliatory strikes effectively destroyed several enemy bunkers, including the Chakputra post in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
The swift and measured action demonstrated Pakistan’s operational readiness in the face of aggression.
Notably, the two nuclear-armed neighbours are experiencing a period of heightened tensions since the April 22 attack on tourists in the scenic resort town in IIOJK, in which at least 26 people were killed.
New Delhi linked Islamabad to the attack without offering any evidence and took a flurry of punitive measures to downgrade ties, including suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, revoking visas of Pakistanis, and closing Wagah-Attari border crossing among others.
Islamabad, in response, ordered the expulsion of Indian diplomats and military advisers, cancelling visas for Indian nationals, with the exception of Sikh pilgrims, and closing the main border crossing from its side.
Pakistan also denies its involvement in the attack and offered to take part in a credible and transparent investigation.
