“There unprovoked ceasefire violation by Pakistan in Keran Sector (Kupwara). Own troops retaliated effectively and strongly. Precision targeting of gun Areas, (militant) launch pads and ammunition dump carried out,” Defence ministry spokesman Col Rajesh Kalia told GNS, adding “reports of heavy damage on enemy side,” he said.
