In a surprise response to the Indian extension of the ceasefire in J&K, Pakistan, on Wednesday, ordered a partial withdrawal of troops from the border along the Line of Control (LoC). “The order was given in a move to try to push the peace process with India forward,” said a military statement. “Pakistan has unilaterally taken another bold initiative to withdraw part of its forces deployed along the line of control,” said a Pakistan army statement. The move back has already commenced and the troops have started moving toward the cantonments. However, the announcement did not indicate from which area along the LoC the troops were being withdrawn. Bureau Report
