Recent Escalation of India-Pakistan Conflict
The ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan received a sharp escalation recently as both nations engaged in military action, leading to severe international concern. India conducted missile strikes in Pakistani-controlled Kashmir, which Pakistan characterized as an "act of war." In retaliation, Pakistan claimed to have downed Indian fighter jets and fired shells across the Line of Control (LoC) in the contentious Kashmir region. This latest bout of violence arises after a terrorist attack in Indian-administered Kashmir, which India attributes to support from Pakistan.
