May 7, 2025 – Tensions between India and Pakistan have dramatically escalated tonight after Indian military forces launched a surprise missile attack targeting multiple locations inside Pakistan.
According to confirmed reports from Pakistani officials, at least nine sites were struck, including areas within Pakistan-administered Jammu & Kashmir. The strikes reportedly targeted bases used by Lashkar-e-Taiba and Jaish-e-Mohammad — militant groups that India accuses of orchestrating attacks within its territory.
Pakistan’s Ministry of Defence has confirmed that the attack resulted in three deaths and nine injuries, vowing a swift and strong response to what it called “India’s blatant aggression.”
This sudden escalation has raised fears of a broader conflict between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. The international community is on high alert, concerned that this could spiral into a regional war with global implications.
Both countries have placed their forces on high alert, and observers warn that the risk of full-scale war has never been higher since the Kargil conflict of 1999.
