6 Indian soldiers killed as Pakistan Army responds to cross-LoC firing
2019-08-21
[DAWN] Six soldiers of the Indian army, including an officer, were killed and many others injured when Pakistain Army troops gave a "befitting response" to recent Indian ceasefire violations in Tatta Pani sector along the Line of Control, the director general of the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said on Tuesday.

According to a tweet by the ISPR chief, firing by Indian troops had killed three civilians, including a seven-year-old boy.

"Pakistain Army targeted Indian posts. 6 Indian soldiers including an officer killed, many injured," the tweet said.
According to Al Ahram, the Indian army rejected the claim that their soldiers were killed as “totally fake”.

#1  Two of the three men killed by Pakistain artillery were hiding, evading arrest in a shed. When it was explained to their uncouth families how they'd perished, they still blamed us.

"If YOU weren't hunting them, they wouldn't be hiding where Pakistain is firing on YOU !"

Sigh !
