ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: The Foreign Office summoned the Indian envoy on Friday for the third consecutive day to register Pakistan’s protest against the persistent ceasefire violations by the Indian forces along the Line of Control (LoC), resulting in martyrdom of innocent civilians and Pakistan army soldiers.

As per the Foreign Office, the Director General (SA & SAARC) Dr Mohammad Faisal summoned the Indian Deputy High Commissioner Gaurav Ahluwalia again today and condemned the unprovoked ceasefire violations by the Indian occupation forces along the LoC in Lipa and Battal Sectors.

The Indian firing had resulted in martyrdom of two civilians namely Muhammad Aziz and Muneeb, and one armed forces personnel Sepoy Ramzan.

Besides four civilians, four Pakistani soldiers including Naik Tanveer Ahmad, Lance Naik Taimoor Aslam, Sepoy Ramazan and Sepoy Muhammad Sheeraz embraced martyrdom in the unprovoked ceasefire violations by the Indian forces in Hot Spring, Lipa and Battal Sectors along the LoC.

The Director General (SA & SAARC) urged the Indian side to instruct its forces to respect the ceasefire, in letter and spirit and maintain peace on the LoC and the Working Boundary. He urged that the Indian side should permit the United Nations Military Observers Group for India and Pakistan (UNMOGIP) to play its mandated role as per the UN Security Council (UNSC) resolutions.

According to Dr Mohammad Faisal, the Indian occupation forces along the LoC and Working boundary have continuously been violating the 2003 ceasefire arrangement, which needs to be respected. He said that the ceasefire violations by India are a threat to regional peace and security and may lead to a strategic miscalculation.
