Pakistan Claims Imminent Indian Strike; Tensions Soar
Following a militant attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, that killed 26 tourists, tensions between India and Pakistan have dramatically escalated. Pakistan’s Information Minister claimed India plans imminent military action, a claim India’s defense ministry has yet to address. Both the US and China have urged restraint amid this heightened conflict, marked by tit-for-tat actions including diplomatic expulsions and the suspension of a crucial water-sharing treaty. The situation is further complicated by recent military exercises and accusations of espionage by both nations.
