Pakistan’s Defence Minister, Khawaja Asif, announced that Pakistan is ready to allow an international investigation into the recent Pahalgam incident, suggesting European and neighboring countries, as well as the UN, should be involved. He criticized Indian PM Narendra Modi for allegedly exploiting the tragedy for political gains and compared it to previous false flag operations.
As tensions rise, India’s unannounced release of water into the Jhelum River has triggered flood warnings in Muzaffarabad. Pakistan responded strongly, calling India’s unilateral suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty a violation and warning that any water diversion would be treated as an act of war.
Pakistan’s leadership emphasized that water is a vital national interest, and any threat to it will be met with a firm and immediate response.
