1 civilian killed in Pakistan after cross-border firing across LoC

Pakistan said on Monday that "unprovoked firing" by Indian forces across the Line of Control (LoC) killed a woman. "Indian troops resorted to unprovoked ceasefire violation along the LOC targeting civil population in Shahkot sector," Army spokesman Maj Gen Asif Ghafoor said. One woman, identified as Asia Bibi, died while nine people were injured in the firing, he said.

Ghafoor said Pakistani troops responded effectively to the Indian firing.
