India violating laws by targeting civilians along LoC using cluster ammunition: ISPR

Following the series of ceasefire violation by India along the Line of Control (LoC), the Inter-Services Public Relations (ISPR) has called on the international community to take notice of India's violation of international laws on use of cluster ammunition targeting innocent citizens.

In a press release issued on Saturday, the ISPR released images taken from the site and said that the Indian army has been using cluster ammunition along LoC and deliberately targeting the civilian population. Due to this violation, two civilians including a four-year-old boy was martyred while 11 others were critically injured on July 30 and July 31 in Neelum Valley.

The ISPR statement further said that use of cluster ammunition is prohibited under Convention on Cluster Ammunition. "This blatant Indian aggression against all international norms exposes true character of Indian Army and their moral standing," the press release added.

Director General of ISPR Major General Asif Ghafoor also took to his personal Twitter handle and wrote, "No weapon can suppress the determination of Kashmiris to get their right of self determination. Kashmir runs in our blood. Indigenous political freedom struggle of brave Kashmiris shall succeed. Insha Allah."
