Pakistan calls for ‘neutral’ investigation into Kashmir attack

The recent tension escalates with reports of Indian troops exchanging fire with Pakistani forces along the Kashmir border for a second consecutive day following an attack that killed 25 Indians and a Nepali. The Indian government blames Pakistan for the attack but denies any role in its planning or execution. Meanwhile, diplomatic tensions are high, with rising calls for military action and measures like closed airspace and suspended treaties intensifying relations. Local communities in border villages are preparing for potential conflict by securing their areas, while editorials suggest a need for restraint to avoid escalating violence.
