"Pakistani troopers resorted to heavy gunfire with small and automatic fire arms from across the Line of Control. No damage was caused to Indian posts. The fire was returned," defence sources said.
The firing violates the 2003 ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan along the international boundary and the Line of Control. The last time Pakistan violated ceasefire was on September 6, when mortar shells and small arms rained on forward posts along the Line of Control in Poonch. Four days before that, the posts in Akhnoor were targeted.
