Six civilians were martyred due to unprovoked and indiscriminate fire of heavy weapons by Afghan Border Forces onto the civilian population in Chaman, Balochistan.

According to ISPR, seventeen individuals were also injured.

Pakistani border troops gave befitting albeit measured response against the uncalled for aggression, but avoided targeting innocent civilians in the area.

Pakistan has also approached Afghan authorities at Kabul to highlight severity of the situation and demanded strict action to obviate any such recurrence of the incident in future.
