Tensions between India and Pakistan Reach Boiling Point Over Kashmir Attack

India and Pakistan are locked in a rapidly escalating military exchange that threatens to explode into a fully fledged war, triggered by a deadly attack on tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir, marking a resurgence of long-standing tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. The conflict has a complex history dating back to the partition of British India in 1947 and has been marked by several major wars, including the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971 and the Kargil War in 1999. Recent tensions have escalated with both countries accusing each other of ceasefire violations along the Line of Control in Kashmir. The situation remains highly volatile, with international leaders urging restraint to prevent a full-blown conflict.
