Tensions have escalated between India and Pakistan in the aftermath of a deadly attack in Indian-administered Kashmir, leading to cross-border skirmishes and diplomatic tensions.
Indian officials have closed 48 tourist sites in Kashmir, and officials in Pakistan are preparing to take legal action regarding India‘s suspension of an important water treaty. For five nights in a row, gunfire has been exchanged along the Line of Control, with Pakistan claiming to have shot down an Indian drone.
The unrest has caused a panic among tourists in the area and reignited fears of an escalation in tensions between two nuclear powers. UN Secretary-General António Guterres urged both sides to de-escalate tensions.
