Tensions Escalate Between India and Pakistan After Deadly Kashmir Attack

Tensions between India and Pakistan are escalating dramatically following a deadly militant attack in Kashmir that killed 26 people. India has swiftly downgraded diplomatic ties, closed its primary border crossing, and suspended the long-standing Indus Waters Treaty, with Prime Minister Modi vowing to pursue the attackers 'to the ends of the earth.' Pakistan's leadership has denied any involvement and responded with retaliatory sanctions, including closing its airspace to Indian flights and suspending trade. Both nations are warning of severe consequences if water flow restrictions are implemented by India, marking a significant turn in their longstanding disputes over Kashmir.
