Recent clashes between India and Pakistan have escalated into a major conflict, with both nations firing missiles at each other's military bases. Pakistan launched Operation Bunyan Marsoos, targeting six Indian military bases after India accused Pakistan of carrying out missile strikes on Pakistani airbases. India responded by downing Pakistani aircraft and deploying drones across Pakistani cities. Despite the escalation, a ceasefire brokered with US mediation appears to be holding, though both sides accuse each other of violations. The conflict was triggered by a deadly attack on tourists in Kashmir, with India blaming Pakistan-backed militants, which Islamabad denies. International actors like the US, China, and the UK have called for de-escalation and peace. Indian and Pakistani military officials report ongoing retaliatory actions, with fears of further escalation and potential use of nuclear weapons. The situation remains tense, with both countries maintaining high military readiness and engaging in diplomatic efforts to prevent further conflict.
