J&K: Another BSF jawan killed as Pakistani troops target 13 BoPs & civilian areas along IB

One Border Security Force (BSF) ​jawan was killed and another injured in heavy Pakistan shelling and firing along International Border in Jammu's RS Pura sector.

Pakistani troops also targeted 13 BoPs and civilian areas along International Border in RS Pura, Pargwal and Kanachak.

According to reports, firing is still going on.

Pakistan Rangers violated ceasefire twice on Sunday in RS Pura sector, using mortar shells and firing small arms.

The ceasefire violation came within hours of warning by Additional Director General, BSF, Arun Kumar that Pakistan will have to face dire consequences if any BSF Jawan was targeted.

BSF jawan Gurnam Singh, who was injured in Saturday's attack by Pakistani forces in Kathua district, succumbed to his injuries on Saturday night.

On Friday night, Pakistan Rangers had targeted the border hamlets and border outposts (BoP) with mortar shells and opened fire from automatic weapons along the IB in the sector.

Seven Pakistan Rangers personnel and a terrorist were killed and three others seriously injured in a befitting retaliatory action by the BSF as the Pakistani troops had targeted six sectors in Jammu, Kathua, Samba, Poonch and Rajouri districts of Jammu and Kashmir.
