7 Killed in Pakistan Shelling Along LoC; J&K Lt Governor Orders Civilian Evacuation from High-Risk Areas

Seven people lost their lives after Pakistani forces fired shells across the Line of Control (LoC) into Indian territory. The attack caused panic in nearby villages, as the shells hit homes and injured several people. In response, the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu and Kashmir, Manoj Sinha, ordered the immediate evacuation of civilians from areas close to the border.

The shelling began late at night and continued for several hours. It damaged houses, set fire to fields, and forced families to flee. Security forces quickly reached the affected villages and helped rescue people who were trapped inside their homes. Emergency services also moved in to treat the injured and move survivors to safer locations.

Lt Governor Sinha responded quickly to the situation. He directed district officials and disaster teams to move civilians away from high-risk zones along the LoC. The administration arranged buses, medical teams, and temporary shelters to support the displaced families. Officials also set up emergency helplines to assist people in locating missing family members and getting medical help.

The army increased its presence in the border areas and strengthened security to prevent further attacks. Troops took control of key points and monitored the situation closely to ensure the safety of villagers.

Many local leaders condemned the attack and asked the international community to take notice. They said Pakistan must stop targeting civilians and violating ceasefire agreements. Meanwhile, people across India expressed grief and anger over the loss of innocent lives.

The victims’ families are now receiving support from the government, including financial aid and medical care. Relief camps are providing food, water, and shelter for those who had to leave their homes behind.

The government has promised to take strong action to protect border villages and prevent future attacks. As the situation remains tense, officials continue to monitor the area and help affected families recover from the tragedy.
