Pakistani troops opened firing towards the Indian positions along the LoC in Uri and Keran sectors around 1 pm, police officials said.
Pakistan has been increasingly violating the ceasefire agreement even as the two countries are fighting the coronavirus pandemic.
All through the week, it fired small arms and mortar shells along the LoC in Poonch district.
Last week, it injured six security personnel in Sunderbani-Nowshera sector.
