"At around 1045 hours, Pakistani Army initiated unprovoked ceasefire violation by firing with small arms and resorting to intense shelling of mortars along the LoC in Nowshera sector of Rajouri district," a defense spokesperson said.

"The Indian Army is retaliating befittingly," the spokesperson said.
