SIALKOT: Indian forces on Friday continued unprovoked shelling and indiscriminate firing along the Sialkot working boundary damaging the infrastructure and killing four domestic animals in a border village, officials said.
The officials said that Indian Border Security Forces (BSF) used light weapons and resorted to mortar shelling in Sialkot’s Bajwat and Charwa sectors along the working boundary and close to civilian areas.
The BSF had fired more than 4000 mortar shells and heavy bullets over the past eight days in villages near the Sialkot border, causing losses of human lives, officials of Chenab Rangers said. They said several mortar shells fired by the BSF also landed in fields, but luckily these did not explode.
The officials added that the Pakistani paramilitary forces retaliated in a befitting manner and silenced the Indian guns.
