The near 48-hour peace at the border was shattered this afternoon as the Pakistani army fired upon Indian Army positions along the Line of Control (LoC) in Poonch and Arnia sectors in Jammu and Kashmir. Senior Army officials told NDTV that the firing in Poonch lasted for a short duration and the Indian Army claimed to have responded "adequately". Firing was reported again around 8 pm in Arnia where five civilians were killed earlier this week in heavy shelling, spiking tension along the border.
