  • Prime Minister Narendra Modi reaffirmed India's commitment to taking decisive action against the perpetrators and backers of the April 22 Pahalgam attack that killed 26 people.
  • Pakistan conducted a surface-to-surface missile test, which India views as a provocative escalation in the ongoing standoff.
