Pakistan firing in Jammu region repulsed

Indian troops on Thursday replied effectively to Pakistan's unprovoked firing along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu region's Naushera sector inflicting heavy damage on Pakistani posts, defence sources said.

There was no loss of life or damage on the Indian side, they said..

Indian troops retaliated with mortar and heavy calibre small arms fire, the sources said.

"We cannot exactly assess the damage on the other side in view of the heavy exchange of fire and mortar shelling," the sources said.
