The Pakistan Army intensified shelling along the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir, leading to a firm response from the Indian Army, officials confirmed on Thursday.
Following intense cross-border shelling on Wednesday under 'Operation Sindoor,' Thursday's attacks were less severe and confined to four sectors, according to officials.
Despite no new casualties, earlier artillery strikes claimed 13 lives, leading to the closure of educational institutions and an increased state of alertness in border areas.
