ISLAMABAD: A man was injured on Saturday when Indian border troops opened fire along the Line of Control (LoC) in Chirikot Sector, the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement. The military’s media wing named the injured civilian as Attique Qureshi. Pakistani troops effectively retaliated to the Indian firing from across the de facto border, the ISPR claimed. Incidents of cross-border firing have become a norm since the last months of 2016, as tensions simmered between Pakistan and India over the Kashmir issue. Exchanges of fire have been reported sporadically since the new year began.
