The Indian Army claims to have decimated a Pakistan Army post in the Naushera sector by carrying out fire assaults on the Line of Control (LoC) as part of its anti-terror operations.
A top Army official said that the assaults were carried out recently as Pakistani posts were supporting infiltration inside India.
Additional Director General Public Information Maj Gen Ashok Narula said a video of the strike had been released.
But there is no mention of the time and date of the strike.
