India has shut its airspace to Pakistani airlines following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that killed 26 people, including 25 Indian tourists. A Notice to Airmen (NOTAM) was issued on Wednesday, restricting Pakistani carriers from Indian air routes. This step intensifies pressure on Pakistan, which faces accusations of supporting cross-border terrorism. As tensions rise, UN Secretary-General António Guterres held calls with Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif. While Guterres condemned the attack, Pakistan alleged India may initiate military action within 36 hours and demanded a neutral probe. Diplomatic channels remain active as regional anxiety deepens.
