Jammu, Oct 9 (IBNS): In a fresh attack Pakistani troops targeted at least 60 Indian posts near the 200-km International Border in Jammu and Kashmir leaving at least eight people, including five civilians, injured on Wednesday night, media reports said.

Pakistan started firing at Indian outposts with firing and shelling using heavy mortars and automatic weapons at about 9.15 pm on Wednesday from Kanachak in Jammu.

There was shelling in over 80 villages in Jammu, Samba and Kathua districts.

The fresh firing came hours after Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statements on the ceasefire violation issue by Pakistan as he said: “Everything will be fine soon.”

Indian soldiers also retaliated aggressively from around 60 posts. Firing is still on in several sectors in Jammu, sources said.
