Pakistan warns of an Indian attack, while quietly urging de-escalation More than a week after a shocking militant attack in Indian-administered Kashmir — prompting the worst crisis between India and Pakistan in at least half a decade — Islamabad is awaiting its archrival’s next move.
The Indian government has accused Pakistan of “linkages” to the April 22 militant assault on tourists at a mountain resort in Pahalgam, which killed 26 people, the deadliest attack of its kind in Indian-administered Kashmir in recent memory.
Conflict Between India and Pakistan By the Center for Preventive Action https://www.cfr.org/global-conflict-tracker/conflict/conflict-between-india-and-pakistan Indian and Pakistani forces have exchanged fire across the LOC every day since the attack. The United States and China have called for de-escalation, with Beijing advocating for an independent investigation into the attack and its suspects. Islamabad and New Delhi have since traded military threats, with India’s navy testing long-range missiles. On April 28, Pakistan’s defense ministry expressed belief that an Indian military attack on Pakistani territory was “imminent” and that the Pakistan military was preparing reinforcements. Meanwhile, India has launched a crackdown in Kashmir, as Indian security forces have arrested over 1,500 Kashmiris and demolished homes of suspected militants.
