Heat Up Between India and Pakistan: A Recap
India experienced a missile attack originating from Pakistan.
Relations between India and Pakistan have gone from bad to worse after a devastating terror attack in the Indian region, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 22. The attack left 26 innocents dead.
In response to this horrific event, India retaliated with Operation "Sindhur", striking targets linked to terrorist activities on Pakistani territory. This move was followed by Pakistan's retaliatory strikes, launching missiles at multiple Indian sites, as per reports.
This escalation in tensions between the two nations has led to several hard-hitting measures from India. For instance, Pakistani military attachés were expelled, the Indus Water Treaty, in effect for over 6 decades, was suspended, and the Attari land transit point was closed immediately.
Following these actions, Pakistan reacted by suspending all bilateral agreements with India, closing its airspace to Indian airlines, and claiming any attempts to divert or control water under the Indus Waters Treaty or encroach upon lower riparian rights would be considered an act of war.
