Pakistani troops continue firing along border
Jammu, Jan 3 (IBNS) Firing by Pakistani troops continued along the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir as several civilians in border villages sustained injures in Kathua and Samba districts, said media reports on Saturday.
Reports said six were injured in the latest firing while earlier a BSF personnel was killed.
Five Pakistani Rangers were also killed in Indian retaliation so far, said reports.
Heavy firing has been reported earlier from Samba and Hiranagar sectors.
Several Border Security Force (BSF) posts have been targeted.
The firing occurred at a time when the Indian Coast Guard on Friday said the suspicious Pakistani boat, that blew itself up near the Gujarat coast on the new year's eve, had continued to send signals of non-compliance despite being cornered by it.
