A deadly terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, claimed 26 lives, predominantly tourists. In response, Indian Army Chief General Upendra Dwivedi arrived in Srinagar to assess security measures and visit the attack site. An all-party meeting in New Delhi saw unanimous support for decisive action against terrorism, with opposition leader Rahul Gandhi backing the government's stance. India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty and expelled Pakistani military attaches, demanding Pakistan cease support for cross-border terrorism. Pakistan retaliated by halting all trade with India, expelling Indian diplomats, and closing its airspace to Indian airlines. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif led these decisions following a national security committee meeting. (PC: Wikipedia)
