India vs Pakistan Latest News Today: In a tragic escalation along the Line of Control (LoC) and International Border (IB) in Jammu and Kashmir, the Pakistan Army resorted to unprovoked and indiscriminate firing, including heavy artillery shelling, during the night of May 6-7, 2025, resulting in the deaths of three innocent civilians. The Indian Army, in a statement, condemned the attack and confirmed that it is responding in a proportionate manner to Pakistan’s aggression.
The Pakistani shelling targeted areas opposite Jammu and Kashmir, following India’s ‘Operation Sindoor,’ which saw the Indian armed forces conduct precision missile strikes on nine terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) early on May 7. The operation, aimed at neutralizing terror infrastructure, including a major Jaish-e-Mohammad base in Bahawalpur, also involved the downing of a Pakistani JF-17 fighter jet attempting to intrude into Indian airspace over Pulwama’s Pampore.
“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 is responding in a proportionate manner,” the Indian Army stated.
The civilian casualties have heightened tensions in the region, with local authorities urging residents in border areas to remain vigilant and seek shelter in safe locations. The shelling, described as indiscriminate, has drawn sharp criticism from Indian officials, who view it as a violation of the ceasefire agreement and an attempt to destabilize the region in retaliation for India’s anti-terror operations.
The Indian Army’s response has been measured yet firm, with troops along the LoC and IB engaging Pakistani posts to neutralize the threat. The Additional Directorate General of Public Information (ADGPI) earlier reported Pakistan’s ceasefire violation in the Bhimber Gali sector of Poonch-Rajouri, underscoring the ongoing cross-border exchanges.
This incident comes in the wake of heightened military activity following ‘Operation Sindoor,’ which was launched two weeks after a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam. The Indian Army has vowed to continue its efforts to dismantle terror networks operating across the border, with a detailed briefing on the operation expected later today.
The loss of civilian lives has sparked outrage, and calls for peace and accountability are growing amidst the volatile situation along the border.
