Since?
I saw a news title last night.
"Pakistan violates border ceasefire four times since last night"
From what I know, "since" is used in sentences with present perfect or present perfect continuous tense to mention the starting point of time.
What is the difference between
"Pakistan has violated border ceasefire four times since last night"
and
"Pakistan violates border ceasefire four times since last night"?
"Pakistan violates border ceasefire four times since last night"

Anonymous do you mean the news title, as a headline, was grammatically incorrect?No, I was explaining how I would normally expect the versions of the news to be handled for Headlines, morning news, and special announcements. News media tend to reduce the number of words so the print can be larger.
