The Indian Army shifted its Birgade Commander of the 12 Brigade stationed at Uri in Occupied Northern Kashmir, Indian media reported.

The orders were issued on Friday night weeks after an attack on a military base at Uri took the lives of 18 soldiers on September 18.

Indian was quick to point its fingers at Pakistan for the attack, an allegation which Pakistan denied.

Tensions however have mounted between the two countries following the attack.

The Indian Army today continued unprovoked firing at Line of Control, Bhimbar sector today for four hours, the ISPR confirmed.

On Thursday, two Pakistani soldiers embraced martyrdom when Indian forces resorted to unprovoked firing across the LoC.

The unprovoked fire was painted as a surgical strike by senior Indian officials, in a move apparently aimed to satisfy the public.
