Days after the cross-border strikes between India and Pakistan, the Indian Army went door-to-door in the shelling-affected areas of Poonch near the LoC. The Army jawans provided residents with medicines and rations, and also interacted with the local people caught in the recent cross-border tensions. Locals were deeply moved by the gesture. A resident of Poonch said, "We stayed here even during the war-like situation. The Army that fought for us--we stayed here because of them, as they are fighting for us and are without their families. It's because of them that we are living today..."

Several houses, shops, and vehicles were damaged after Pakistan carried out unprovoked shelling across the Line of Control in Jammu and Kashmir. The attacks targeted areas in Poonch, Rajouri, Baramulla, and Jammu districts. Now, a viral video shows chilling CCTV footage from Poonch, capturing the moment a shell strikes a residential area, triggering a powerful blast. Watch video for more.
