Pakistan on Saturday summoned a senior Indian diplomat to register strong protest over ceasefire violation by India along the Line of Control (LoC) on August 14 resulting in serious injuries to a civilian.

“Due to indiscriminate and unprovoked firing by the Indian occupation forces in Dhudhnial Sector along the LoC, three-year-old Zulekha, resident of Village Tejian, sustained serious injuries,” a statement issued by the Foreign Office said.

Indian occupation forces along the LoC and the Working Boundary (WB) have been continuously targeting civilian populated areas with artillery fire, heavy-calibre mortars and automatic weapons.

This year, India has committed 1,980 ceasefire violations to date, resulting in the martyrdom of 16 and serious injuries to 161 innocent civilians.

Condemning the deplorable targeting of innocent civilians by the Indian occupation forces, it was underscored that such senseless acts are in clear violation of the 2003 Ceasefire Understanding, and are also against all established humanitarian norms and professional military conduct.
