Pakistan violated the Cease Fire Agreement (CFA) when it resorted to unprovoked firing and shelling from across the Line of Control (LoC) in Kupwara District of Jammu and Kashmir (J&K) late on February 22, reports Daily Excelsior. According to Official sources, Pakistan resorted to firing with automatic weapons, targeting forward posts and civilian areas on this side of LoC in Keran and Tanghdar sectors in Kupwara late Saturday (February 22) evening. However, Indian troops retaliated and the exchange of fire continued from 1600 hours to 2350 hours. The sources further said that Pakistani troops were resorting to firing to help militants to sneak into this side. However, they said troops were on high alert to foil any infiltration bid from Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (POK), where a huge number of trained militants are waiting in launching pads to sneak into this side.
