Shift in strategy to compensate for its dwindling abilities, it says
The Army on Thursday said the Pakistani army, manning the Line of Control (LoC), has “shifted its focus” and started “targeting civil habitation and even mosques to inflict civil casualties” in J&K. Meanwhile, one CRPF jawan was injured and a civilian was killed in attacks by gunmen in Kashmir on Thursday.
“The Pakistan army’s frustration over its failed infiltration attempts across LoC over the years has been an established fact. However, of late, it seems to have shifted its focus from targeting the Army posts to targeting civilians in forward villages, to compensate for its dwindling abilities,” a Srinagar-based Army spokesman said.
