Two shepherds martyred, one injured after Indian forces open fire at LoC in Sattwal Sector: ISPR
The ISPR also reminded the Indian side to respect the basic human rights of Kashmiris, “particularly their inalienable right to their lands”.
Two people were martyred and one injured after the Indian forces opened fire at the Line of Control on Saturday.
The Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) said in a statement notified that “Today, at 11:55 hours, the Indian Army, in a display of its usual inhumane approach towards innocent Kashmiris, opened indiscriminate fire onto a group of shepherds in the Sattwal Sector.”
The martyred hasve been identifed as Obaid Qayyum, 22, and Muhammad Qasim, 55. “Both shaheeds (martyrs) are residents of village Bara Dari Tetrinote, Tehsil Hajira, District Poonch.
“In the sequel to the Indian Army’s unprovoked firing today, while adopting an inhumane approach towards innocent Kashmiris at Sattwal Sector, one more civilian has embraced shahadat while one remains critically injured. (Total two martyred and one critically injured),” ISPR added.
“Driven by newfound geo-political patronage, Indian forces have embarked on a plan to take innocent lives to satiate their false narratives and concocted allegations.
“While a strong protest is being launched with the Indian side, Pakistan reserves the right to respond back in the manner of its choosing to protect Kashmiri lives in the LoC,” it added.
The ISPR also reminded the Indian side to respect the basic human rights of Kashmiris, “particularly their inalienable right to their lands”.
