Pakistan on Tuesday protested with India the latest ceasefire violation across the Line of Control (LoC) and also condemned the death of a civilian on the Pakistani side due to Indian firing.
” Indian Deputy High Commissioner JP Singh was summoned to the Foreign Office today by the Director General (SA) to lodge a formal protest with the Government of India over the killing of a Pakistani civilian,” said FO Spokesman Qazi Khalilullah.
“Pakistan also condemned the latest unprovoked ceasefire violations by the Indian security forces at the LoC in Nakial sector near Kotli and Bhimber Gali sector on August 9, in which Pakistani posts were targeted,” added Khalilullah.
Earlier on Tuesday, a woman who was critically injured last week during an exchange of fire between Pakistani and Indian troops along the LoC succumbed to her injuries at the Combined Military Hospital (CMH) Rawalpindi, according to a statement released by the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR).
