RAWALPINDI, Pakistan: The Inter Services Public Relations (ISPR) on Saturday said that today, at 1155 hours, Indian Army, in a display of its usual inhumane approach towards innocent Kashmiris, opened indiscriminate fire onto a group of shepherds in Sattwal Sector.
Resultantly, two civilian embraced shahadat while one remained critically injured.
The martyred civilians included 22-year-old Obaid Qayyum S/o Muhammad Qayyum and 55-year-old Muhammad Qasim S/o Muhammad Din. Both Shaheeds were resident of Village Bara Dari Tetrinote, Tehsil Hajira District Poonch.
Driven by a newfound geo-political patronage, the ISPR said, the Indian forces have embarked on a plan to take innocent lives to satiate their false narratives and concocted allegations.
The ISPR said that while a strong protest is being launched with Indian side, Pakistan reserves the right to respond back in manner of its choosing to protect Kashmiri lives in the Line of Control (LOC) belt.
It said that the Indian side is reminded to respect basic human rights of Kashmiris, particularly, their inalienable right to till their lands.
