Shafaq News/ Pakistan’s militaryviolated the ceasefire agreement by opening fire along the international borderin Jammu district, India’s ANI news agency reported on Wednesday.

The incident occurred near BaraaJowal, a sensitive area south of the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu andKashmir.

    Unlike previous ceasefireviolations, which were typically limited to the LoC, this exchange of fireoccurred along the officially recognised international border — an escalationsecurity sources described as unusual and significant.

    Earlier today, the Indian Armyreported that its positions in the Nowshera, Sundarbani, and Akhnoor sectorswere also targeted. In response, the military took what it described as a"prompt and proportionate" action.

    The latest flare-up follows adeadly attack in Jammu and Kashmir that killed 26 people, fuelling renewedtension between India and Pakistan.

    Diplomatic relations between thetwo countries have further deteriorated. Authorities on both sides havecancelled visas and suspended operations at the Wagah border crossing. Indianofficials have accused Pakistan of supporting cross-border militancy, a chargePakistan denies. No formal mediation efforts are currently underway, thoughconcern over the stability of the region continues to rise.

    Communities near the Line ofControl remain anxious, with many residents recalling the intense conflicts ofthe 1990s and 2000s that caused significant damage to border villages. Thefragile peace established by the 2003 ceasefire agreement, reaffirmed in 2021,now faces a serious threat.
