On Wednesday, India launched missile strikes into Pakistani-controlled territory, targeting three locations as part of its response to ongoing tensions following a militant attack on tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir. India has accused Pakistan of supporting this attack, a claim that Islamabad has denied. The strikes hit areas in Pakistan-administered Kashmir and the eastern Punjab province, according to Pakistani security officials.
India’s Defense Ministry stated that it targeted at least nine sites allegedly linked to the planning of terrorist attacks against India. The ministry described the strikes as “focused, measured, and non-escalatory,” emphasizing that military facilities in Pakistan were not harmed. They asserted that considerable restraint was exhibited in selecting targets and executing the strikes.
This escalation reflects heightened hostilities between the two nuclear-armed nations, which have a long history of conflict and rivalry over the Kashmir region. The recent military actions by India signal a potential shift in its approach towards dealing with perceived threats from militant activities linked to Pakistan.
