@karandhar89 @agouriya9001 Different operational personnel in LOC actions. Jaish is there to complement regulars in BAT actions.

@karandhar89 @agouriya9001 They are very cunningly keeping below the threshold.

@agouriya9001 Question is, what constitutes a ceasefire violation? Are BAT actions across LOC or Pakistan terrorists striking in hinterland not violations?

@arunshams Officially, the Army’s higher command has not even attributed the blast to pak terrorists. So, whom will Govt pin blame on? I get the sense of an apprehension, to ensure LOC ceasefire holds, and an adverse status quo prevails on LAC.

@Starboi47004668 Pak is waging not just 1000 cuts war but a war of 1000 years. Either go in for a political settlement with Pak-China or deliver a decisive military defeat. Else, this will continue with tactical & operational pauses inbetween which will be mistaken as peace ushered into Kashmir

@Milkshake9697 Either a political settlement with Pak-China or deliver a decisive military defeat.

@Milkshake9697 A perceptive question

@aryan38831 Neither do we want an escalation. That is why we are adhering to the LOC ceasefire despite provocations.

@utkarsh2048 They have their exit well planned, as evidenced in convoy ambushes and LOC BAT actions.

@danish777800 Planting IEDs and ambushes along LOC / border are BAT actions that have been taking place since 1990s. Yes, ambushes in Jammu on convoys are getting tougher. So, I expect a change in tactics and focus from the Pak planners. Last ambush in Jammu was July 2024. In kashmir, Oct 24

@RakeshT45856231 BAT actions, ongoing since 1990s. The enemy is well versed with our movement, beaten tracks, and has support of OGWs. The blast on Jan 14, they were waiting, and even recorded it. Quite a penetration.
