A civilian was seriously injured when Indian Border Security Forces (BSF) personnel resorted to firing at the Line of Control (LoC) in Chirikot sector along the Line of Control (LoC) on Saturday.
According to military sources, Muhammad Wasim, a resident of Polas village received a bullet injury in the neck and is in a serious condition.
The recent spree of firing at the LoC and Working Boundary commenced earlier this month.
On July 16, Pakistan claimed that three people were killed and five others injured in Sialkot’s Chaprar sector, whereas another person was killed in firing across the LoC in Rawalakot’s Naiza Pir sector in separate instances of unprovoked firing by Indian BSF personnel.
Unprovoked firing by BSF was also reported on the first day of Eidul Fitr at Naiza Pir sector. However, no casualties were reported.
