Srinagar, Apr 27: Pakistani troops resorted to unprovoked firing along the Line of Control (LoC) for the third consecutive night, officials said on Sunday. Indian Army personnel responded effectively to the violation, officials said.
Lt Col Suneel Bartwal, Army Spokesperson said on the night of 26-27 April 2025, Pakistan Army posts initiated unprovoked small arms fire across the Line of Control in the areas opposite Tutmari Gali and Rampur Sectors.
“Indian Army troops responded effectively with appropriate small arms fire,” he said.
Army sources indicated that the retaliatory fire inflicted damage on several Pakistani posts believed to be aiding infiltration routes. However, no official confirmation was provided regarding casualties or damage on the other side.
Meanwhile, the situation remains tense but under control, with no reports of injuries or fatalities on the Indian side.
Two days before, Pakistan Army resorted to multiple ceasefire violations from several forward posts in Kupwara district and parts of Rajouri and Poonch in the Jammu region.
Meanwhile forces have deployed high resolution night vision devices, ground sensors, thermal imagers, and smart fencing systems integrated with command-and-control centres.
“Modern surveillance tools give our troops an edge and allow for faster, more precise responses. They have been instrumental in preventing several infiltration bids in recent months,” Sources added.
In 2025, Pakistan has violated the ceasefire along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir multiple times, with a notable escalation in April.
On April 25-27, Pakistani forces initiated unprovoked small arms fire for three consecutive nights across sectors like Tutmari Gali and Rampur in the Uri Sector, prompting effective retaliation from Indian troops.
These incidents followed a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam on April 22, which killed 26 people, mostly tourists, and heightened tensions among India and Pakistan.
