“The day seven of our soldiers were martyred on the border, we killed at least 11 Indian soldiers,” the Pakistan Army Chief General had claimed.
He asserted that Pakistan has killed “40-44 Indian troops” in the current clashes but the Indian Army was refusing to accept and own its casualties.
Pakistan had claimed that seven of its soldiers were killed at the LoC in an alleged ceasefire violation by Indian troops on November 13.
Earlier on Monday, Foreign Secretary Aizaz Chaudhry summoned the Indian High Commissioner Gautam Bambawale and condemned the “unprovoked ceasefire” violation by the Indian forces on the Line of Control (LoC), resulting in the death of 7 Pakistani soldiers in Bhimber area.(With inputs from PTI)
