Pakistan moves 2,000 soldiers within 30 km of LoC
Pakistan has moved a brigade-sized force of around 2,000 soldiers to a location within 30 kms of the Line of Control (LoC) in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, Indian Army sources said on Thursday.
New Delhi: Pakistan has moved a brigade-sized force of around 2,000 soldiers to a location within 30 kms of the Line of Control (LoC) in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, Indian Army sources said on Thursday.
The troops have been placed in the Bagh and Kotli sector in PoK.
"The troop movement could be a defensive move by Pakistan in the light of heightened tensions with India. The movement and location were confirmed through various intelligence sources including local inputs," said a senior Army official.
The security establishment is keeping a close tab on the troop movements in Pakistan and is exploring if it poses any immediate threat to India.
The move by the Pakistan Army assumes significance since Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has threatened in the recent past of a war-like situation developing between the two countries after India withdrew special status for Jammu and Kashmir on August 5.
