Pakistani troops violated the ceasefire along several sectors at the Line of Control (LoC) and International Border for the eighth consecutive night on Thursday. The Indian Army has responded to each of these violations in a “calibrated and proportionate manner”. For the last few hours, there have been repeated violations of the understanding arrived at earlier this evening between the Directors General of Military Operations of India and Pakistan. Foreign secretary Vikram Misri on Saturday said that Indian armed forces are responding to ceasefire violations by Pakistan, just hours after the truce was agreed upon. Pakistan launched artillery shelling and drone activity along the International Border and LoC in multiple locations, violating the ceasefire agreement reached just hours earlier.
