 India Pakistan tensions Pahalgam attack

Pakistan’s Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif vows to respond to every Indian attack, as tensions between India and Pakistan are escalating by the day after a deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam.

While addressing the Pakistan Military Academy Passing Out Parade in Kakul Sharif said that his nation would respond to every attack India mounts. "We shall respond to every attack by India," he said in his speech. He also said he was ready for a "neutral and transparent investigation" over the Pahalgam terror attack but warned against any "misadventures".

Tensions between India and Pakistan have been rising each day after the deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam that claimed the lives of 26 people. The attack was allegedly sponsored by Pakistan through 'The Resistance Front (TRF)', an offshoot of the Jaish-e-Muhammad.

Reacting to the tragedy, India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty and canceled all Pakistani visas, prompting a fierce response from Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari. Standing along the banks of the Indus River in Sukkur, Bhutto-Zardari said: "The Indus is ours," he said. "Either our water will flow through it, or their blood." His remarks come just days after the Pahalgam tragedy reignited long-standing hostilities between the two nuclear-armed neighbours.

India's decision to suspend the decades-old water-sharing agreement was formally communicated to Pakistan through a letter from Water Resources Secretary Debashree Mukherjee. The letter, addressed to her Pakistani counterpart Syed Ali Murtaza, cited "sustained cross-border terrorism by Pakistan targeting Jammu and Kashmir" as the basis for New Delhi's move.

"The obligation to honour a treaty in good faith is fundamental," the letter stated. "However, what we have seen instead is continued terrorism that directly impedes India's ability to fully exercise its rights under the treaty."

The Indus Waters Treaty, brokered by the World Bank in 1960, has long been considered one of the few enduring agreements between the two nations. Its suspension marks a significant deterioration in bilateral relations and raises concerns about the potential for further conflict.

On the other hand, a Pakistani army attache’ publicly threatens Indian community members with a 'throat slit' gesture in (London) UK.

In the wake of terrorist attacks in Pahalgam, the ties between India and Pakistan have plunged to a new low. In the latest development, Pakistan Army's attache in the UK publicly threatens Indian community members with a 'throat slit' gesture.

Amid regularly rising tensions between India and Pakistan following the Pahalgam terrorist attack that killed 26 Indian tourists; a senior official of the Pakistan Army was caught on camera making threatening gestures toward the protestors in London.

The gesture came as members of the Indian community held a protest outside the Pakistan High Commission in London on Friday, condemning the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam.

The Pakistani official under question is identified as Colonel Taimur Rahat-Pakistan’s Army and Air Adviser in the High Commission in London. In videos that are doing the rounds on social media, he can be seen publicly threatening Indian community protestors with a "throat slit" gesture.

In response, on Friday, more than 500 British Hindus held a protest outside the Pakistan Embassy over the Pahalgam terror attack. The Indian community members were carrying Indian flags, banners, and placards as they expressed deep sorrow over the loss of innocent lives and demanded justice for the victims. They also raised slogans, slamming Pakistan for sheltering terrorist groups, responsible for such attacks. The Pakistani High Commission reportedly played loud music and made insensitive comments while people were in grief.

The news agency reports quoting the organiser of the protest as saying, "In a disturbing and shameful turn of events, officials within the Pakistan Embassy were seen playing loud celebratory music during the protest--a tone-deaf and disgraceful act that added deep insult to an already grievous injury."

The Indian community demanded that the UK government summon Pakistan's High Commissioner for an official explanation.

Following the terror attacks in Jammu and Kashmir's Pahalgam, India and Pakistan have taken diplomatic measures and countermeasures. India decided to hold the Indus Water Treaty in abeyance, asked all Pakistani nationals to head back to their country, and designated the military advisors in the Pakistani Embassy in New Delhi as persona non grata.

Pakistan countered by closing its airspace for all Indian airlines, blocking the Wagah border, suspending all trade with India, and revisiting the Simla agreement. Saifullah Kasuri, mastermind of Pahalgam attacks claims 'innocence', says 'not responsible, being framed'.
