Tensions between India and Pakistan have sharply increased following a deadly attack on Hindu tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir, which left 26 dead. India has called on the IMF to review loans to Pakistan, signaling a hardening stance amid cross-border accusations. Both countries, nuclear-armed rivals, have announced new measures in response to the attack, raising fears of potential military escalation. Analysts note that while a full-scale war remains unlikely, any miscalculation could quickly worsen the situation. Past crises, such as the Pulwama bombing, show that careful diplomacy and de-escalation are crucial to avoid conflict.
