Overview

  • Indian security forces have located the Pahalgam attackers multiple times in South Kashmir's dense forests but have yet to apprehend them.
  • Following the April 22 attack that killed 26 tourists, India suspended the Indus Water Treaty and canceled most Pakistani short-term visas in a strong diplomatic response.
  • Pakistan has evacuated militant launch pads in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, moving operatives to army shelters and bunkers to prepare for potential Indian strikes.
  • The Pakistani military has forward-deployed its TPS-77 radar system in Sialkot to detect any Indian airstrikes, reflecting heightened defensive posturing.
  • Cross-border ceasefire violations continue, with both nations reinforcing military positions along the Line of Control.
