On Thursday, the Indian Army refuted claims of a ceasefire breach along the Line of Control (LoC), emphasizing that the ceasefire agreement with Pakistan remains unviolated.

The army's statement stressed that both Indian and Pakistani forces are observing the ceasefire agreement. Minor tensions, attributed to cross-LoC firing and suspected explosive device activity, are being diligently addressed, with no heavy-calibre weapon exchanges reported. Communication lines remain open to address such incidents promptly and effectively.

While acknowledging that minor incidents are not uncommon along the LoC, the Indian Army assured that any concerns have been raised with the Pakistani forces at the appropriate diplomatic levels. The statement concluded with reassurance of the situation's stability, closely monitored with heightened alertness and control over the LoC maintained by Indian forces.
