Along the LoC Indian troops opened fire in the Kotli sector which killed one and injured four, including two children, said officials and residents from the area.

In the area of the Working Boundary, Indian troops resorted to firing in the Shakargarh sector, which resulted in the death of a woman and injured seven others, said a statement released from the Inter-Services Public Relations.

"Pak Rangers befittingly responded to Indian unprovoked firing and targetted Indian posts inflicting heavy casualties," said the ISPR statement.

#1  Happens all the time. And the Pak rangers will respond appropriately ?
Like what? Squat ?

They ARE Pakis. And Pakis are noted for what in combat? In Bangla Desh the Pakis surrendered a Whole Country in 13 days after fighting for one day and running for two weeks.93,000 Paki prisoners were loaded on cattle cars and shipped to the Rann of Kutch desert where they were auctioned off over six years back to the Mighty Pak Army for money and concessions. The Paci military is not known for its achievements. They have LOST ALL their recent wars, every one.
