LoC Firing News: At least 10 civilians were killed while 48 others sustained injuries after Pakistan violated the ceasefire and resorted to unprovoked and indiscriminate firing, including artillery shelling, from across the Line of Control (LoC) and the International Border (IB) opposite Jammu and Kashmir. The Indian Army stated that it is responding in a "proportionate manner" to the unprovoked aggression.

"During the night of 06-07 May 2025, the Pakistan Army resorted to arbitrary firing, including artillery shelling from posts across the Line of Control and IB opposite J&K. Three innocent civilians lost their lives in indiscriminate firing/shelling. Indian Army are responding in a proportionate manner," the Army said in an official statement.

Meanwhile, the Indian Army gave an "effective" response to ceasefire violations by the Pakistan Army, which used artillery guns to target areas across the LoC. Pakistan Army has suffered casualties in the strong Indian retaliation, defence sources said, as quoted by ANI.

India carried out its deepest strikes inside Pakistan's undisputed territory since 1971, successfully targeting terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir. This marks New Delhi's most significant military action within Pakistani territory in over five decades.

The strikes were carried out to avenge the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack and to eliminate Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) and Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) leaders involved in planning and executing terrorist attacks in India.

The Ministry of Defence, in its statement, said, "A little while ago, the Indian Armed Forces launched 'OPERATION SINDOOR', hitting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir from where terrorist attacks against India have been planned and directed."

Altogether, nine (9) sites have been targeted. "Our actions have been focused, measured and non-escalatory in nature. No Pakistani military facilities have been targeted. India has demonstrated considerable restraint in selection of targets and method of execution," the statement added.

This ceasefire violation came just hours after India conducted precision strikes under Operation Sindoor, targeting terror infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK). The Indian Armed Forces successfully struck nine terror targets in total--four inside Pakistan, including Bahawalpur, Muridke, and Sialkot, and five in PoJK--using special precision munitions in a coordinated operation.
