Tensions Flare as Indian and Pakistani Troops Exchange Fire in Disputed Kashmir

Indian and Pakistani soldiers briefly exchanged gunfire along the volatile border in Kashmir, just days after a deadly terror attack killed 26 people on the Indian side.

The incident has heightened tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors, who have a long history of conflict over the disputed Himalayan region. Both sides have accused each other of provocation, and the skirmish follows a series of diplomatic escalations. The situation remains tense, with fears of further violence or escalation.

The international community is closely monitoring the developments due to the potential for broader conflict.
