India-Pakistan Clashes Escalate As Indian Foreign Minister Gets Summoned

By Spy Uganda

 The ongoing diplomatic row  between Pakistan and India doesn’t bear any signs of ending soon and if anything, it just worsening into a humanitarian crisis, because  so far several Pakistanis and Indians have been killed and scores others injured.

Spy Uganda has established that on Friday October 11,2019,  Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry summoned India’s top diplomat in Islamabad identified as Gaurav Ahluwalia, to express their anger towards the continuous ceasefire violations by Indian forces along the Line of Control (LoC).

The Pakistani foreign ministry condemned the unprovoked firing by Indian forces along the LoC in the Sharda, Nezapir, Satwal and Bagsar Sectors, which have left many casualties.

Pakistani authorities claim that Indian forces along the LoC have continuously been targeting civilian areas with artillery fire, heavy-caliber mortars, and automatic weapons, the Pakistani foreign ministry added.

On Thursday, Pakistan military claimed one of its soldiers was killed in unprovoked Indian firing.

The intermittent firing between the two nuclear-armed nations has been underway for the past 15 days in which six Pakistani civilians have been killed and several others injured.

Sources reveal that earlier this week, Pakistan claimed that Indian forces had been targeting civilian areas for several days. 

India and Pakistan both accuse each other of breaching a 2003 ceasefire agreement by shelling and firing over the LoC, resulting in a large number of casualties already this year. 

The Indian foreign ministry claimed that since January Pakistan has resorted to more than 2,050 unprovoked ceasefire violations in which 21 Indians have died.

Relations between the two South Asian nations have been strained since February this year, when India blamed Pakistan for sponsoring terror attacks in Kashmir. 

Tension between the two states resurfaced in August after the Indian government revoked the special status enjoyed by Jammu and Kashmir territories, which Pakistan claims violates bilateral treaties between the two countries

Matters worsened after forty Indian soldiers were killed in a suicide attack on a convoy in Pulwama recently, which was claimed by the UN-designated terror outfit Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM), which maintains bases in Pakistan. 

 Shortly thereafter the Indian Air Force carried out a retaliatory air strike to destroy the alleged terror infrastructure of JeM in Balakot inside Pakistan, leaving many dead.

Since then there have been constant attacks from both sides, which have left many dead, scores injured and fear that the conflict might spark off a fully blown war between the two countries.
