Appreciating operational preparedness and high morale of troops, the COAS lauded officers and men for continued vigilance and professionalism.
Blatant atrocities by Indian occupation forces on innocent Kashmiris and unethical targeting of civil population in the AJ&K is unacceptable, the COAS emphasised.
Indian Army shall always get befitting response to CFVs.
Pakistan Army shall protect innocent civilians along the LOC and defend honour, dignity and territorial integrity of motherland at all costs, the COAS reiterated.
The COAS also appreciated the formation for strict adherence to COVID protocols and proactive assistance to the government of the AJ&K in fighting coronavirus.
Army will continue to support national effort against the pandemic, the COAS concluded.
