"Tensions between India and Pakistan escalated this week after India launched
missile strikes on its long-time rival, killing more than 30 people.
India was retaliating for a terror attack on tourists in Indian-controlled
Kashmir on April 22, which killed 26 civilians, most of them Indian. New Delhi
has blamed a Pakistan-based militant group for the incident.
Pakistan has vowed revenge for the airstrikes, calling them an “act of war”.
If a full-scale war does break out between the two nuclear powers, it wouldn’t
be the first time they have fought over the disputed region of Kashmir. In
fact, the two sides have been in conflict over Kashmir since 1947.
The people of Kashmir, meanwhile, are stuck in the middle of this geopolitical
rivalry, trapped in a security state with little hope for the future."
