Relations Between India and Pakistan Further Deteriorate

Relations between nuclear-armed India and Pakistan are worsening. For the third consecutive night, gunfire has been exchanged in the Kashmir region. India has accused Pakistan of supporting cross-border terrorism, while Pakistan has denied any involvement and warned of retaliation. Following the attack in Pahalgam, India suspended the water-sharing treaty, closed border crossings, and canceled visas. In response, Pakistan expelled Indian diplomats. The United Nations has urged both sides to exercise restraint and resolve the conflict through dialogue.
