India-Pakistan Border Clash: Renewed Firing Sparks Tensions
Following a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, Pakistan initiated cross-border firing along both the Line of Control and, exceptionally, the International Border in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pargawal sector. This escalation, marking the sixth consecutive day of ceasefire violations, comes amid plummeting India-Pakistan relations. India has retaliated to the attacks, and the situation is further complicated by India’s suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty and other bilateral agreements. The UN Secretary-General has condemned the attack and urged both nations to avoid further escalation.
