Pakistan just dropped a pretty big announcement—it’s gearing up for a surface-to-surface missile test off the coast of Karachi between April 24 and 25. The timing? Not exactly subtle. This comes right after the horrific terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, where 26 Indian tourists lost their lives. India’s pointing the finger squarely at Pakistan-based militants, and as expected, tensions have flared up fast.
India hasn’t taken it lightly—it’s paused the Indus Waters Treaty, pulled back on diplomatic ties, and even shut down the Wagah border. Not your everyday responses.
The planned missile test will happen in Pakistan’s Exclusive Economic Zone in the Arabian Sea, and let’s just say Indian defense folks aren’t ignoring it. They’re keeping a sharp eye on this one, especially with everything else going on.
A lot of international watchers are raising red flags, saying this kind of saber-rattling from two nuclear neighbors is risky business. Cooler heads are calling for dialogue before things spiral even further.
