Death toll rises on both sides as India fires missiles into Pakistan
Briefly

India conducted missile strikes in Pakistani-controlled regions, resulting in numerous fatalities, including civilians, amid heightened military tensions. These attacks were justified by India as retaliation for previous militant actions against tourists in Kashmir. Pakistan responded by claiming to have downed Indian jets, escalating the conflict. Both nations have historically disputed control over Kashmir, and the recent strikes have reignited threats of war, with leaders from both sides vowing responses and holding urgent security meetings. The UN has expressed concern over the escalating situation.
"Today's airstrikes were a direct response to the heinous terror attack last month. We aim to eliminate threats posed by militants in Kashmir and protect our citizens."
"Pakistan has every right to give a robust response to this act of war imposed by India, and a strong response is indeed being given," said Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif.
