The Pakistan army said Saturday that a civilian was injured in an Indian firing along the Line of Control (LoC) in the disputed Kashmir region.
A military statement from the Inter-Services Public Relations said that the civilian was injured due to the "unprovoked firing" in Chirikot sector by Indian forces.
"Pakistani troops responded effectively to Indian unprovoked firing," the statement added.
The latest incident happened as escalation along the LoC, which divides the two neighbors in the disputed Kashmir, has been seen since a militant attack on an army center in the Indian-controlled Kashmir on Sept. 18 last year killed 19 soldiers.
The Indian military blamed the Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammad group for the attack and also pointed fingers at Pakistan.
Islamabad rejected the charges and suggested an independent investigation.
