The FO lodged strong protest at the India’s recent ceasefire violations in Jabbar, Sandhara, Sumbal Gali and Dabsi villages of Kotli District along LoC.

While condemning Indian forces over targeting innocent civilians, Director General, South Asia & SAARC Zahid Hafeez Chaudhry underscored that such senseless Indian acts are clear violation of the 2003 ceasefire understanding.

He also underlined it as complete disregard for international human rights and international norms.

He said such aggressive acts further vitiate the tense atmosphere along the LoC.

Furthermore, the DG termed Indian aggressive acts a threat to regional peace and stability.

He said that by raising tensions along the LoC and the Working Boundary (WB), India cannot divert attention from the worsening human rights situation in the Indian Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IOJ&K).
