Escalating Tensions: India and Pakistan on the Brink of Conflict
Amidst a backdrop of military strikes, fears of an all-out war loom between India and Pakistan.
The situation escalated sharply as Pakistan reported over 20 casualties from India's airstrikes, which struck multiple locations within Pakistani-controlled territories. Indian authorities confirm that civilian deaths also occurred due to reciprocal shelling from Pakistan.
