India confronts 'Operation Sindoor' disruption as Pakistan allegedly breaches ceasefire in Poonch; Indian military takes retaliatory measures.
In a recent development, the Indian Army has officially denied any ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC) and International Boundary (IB) in Jammu and Kashmir after the ceasefire announced on May 10, 2025.
Despite some media and social media reports suggesting unprovoked firing by Pakistani forces in the Poonch sector of Jammu and Kashmir on August 5-6, 2025, the Indian Army has refuted these claims, calling them unverified and false.
On August 5, 2025, reports emerged of Pakistani troops firing in the Poonch district, prompting an alleged Indian Army retaliation and high alert. However, the Indian Army quickly issued a clear statement denying any ceasefire violation along the LoC and requested the public to avoid spreading unverified information.
The last verified ceasefire violation before this period was on May 9-10, 2025, when Pakistan Rangers opened fire on Border Security Force (BSF) posts along the International Border in Jammu sector. This was promptly met with a commensurate Indian response.
It is worth noting that earlier reports suggested that the Indian Army had retaliated to Pakistan's unprovoked firing along the LoC in Poonch district on Tuesday, May 10, 2025. However, the Indian Army denied these reports, stating no such retaliation occurred on that day.
Pakistan reportedly violated the ceasefire on May 10, 2025, in several sectors, including Akhnoor, Mendhar, R.S. Pura, Chamb, Bhimber, and Gurez sectors, as well as in Srinagar, according to IANS. However, these reports were not confirmed by the Indian Army.
The specific details of the previous ceasefire violations and their impact on both countries are not provided in the given paragraph.
The Indian Armed Forces launched Operation Sindoor, a precision strike against terrorists' infrastructure in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), on May 7, 2025, in response to the Pahalgam attack on April 22, 2025, which resulted in the death of 25 Indian citizens, one Nepali national, and caused significant casualties.
Following the Pahalgam attack, New Delhi announced several measures against Islamabad, including the suspension of the Indus Water Treaty. However, the current paragraph does not mention any specific statements or actions taken by the Indian government regarding the denied ceasefire violations.
Loud blasts were heard in Srinagar during the same ceasefire violation incident on May 10, 2025, but there were no casualties. Previous ceasefire violations were reported in the first half of May, during a period of escalating tensions between India and Pakistan on the border and diplomatically.
The Resistance Front (TRF), an offshoot of the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT), initially claimed responsibility for the Pahalgam attack on April 22, 2025, but later distanced itself from the attack.
In conclusion, the Indian Army's official stance is that no recent ceasefire violations have occurred after the May 10 ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan. The public is advised to verify information before spreading it.
Politics surrounding war-and-conflicts in India and Pakistan remained intense, as controversy arose over ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC) and International Boundary (IB) in Jammu and Kashmir, with the Indian Army denying any unprovoked firing by Pakistani forces, despite general-news reports suggesting otherwise. Further, the Indian Armed Forces continue to monitor the situation closely, following previous incidents such as the Pahalgam attack that resulted in diplomatic tension and military action like Operation Sindoor.
