Army has foiled a major attempt by Pakistan’s Border Action Team (BAT) to strike an Indian forward post along the line of control in Naugam Sector of Jammu and Kashmir.
The intruders attempted to move by exploiting the thick jungles close to LoC and were assisted by heavy covering fire of high calibre weapons such as Mortars and Rocket Launchers from the Pakistani posts.
The movement was detected by the vigilant Indian Army troops deployed along the LoC early yesterday. The fire-fight initiated by Pakistan was given strong retaliation by Indian Army and the exchange of fire continued the whole night.
