India using toy bombs to target children in Neelum Valley: report

Cluster toy bombs, which are being traced back to India, have been recovered from near the Line of Control (LoC) in Neelum Valley, ARY News reported Saturday.

According to reports, the toy bombs were placed in the peripheries of Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK), near the Working Boundary (WB) of the two countries. WB is the line where Indian occupied Kashmir (IoK) meets Pakistan’s border.

The bombs, reports said, have so far killed three, including a four-year-old child, besides injuring 11 others.

Cluster bombs have been banned under the Geneva Convention, which India is a signatory of.

Shaped like harmless toys, they can be devastating after detonation — exploding into millions of razor-sharp blades that pierce through whatever stands within its range.
