The tensions rise after a deadly terrorist attack in India-administered Kashmir

Pakistan has alleged that India is planning a military strike on its territory, signaling a further escalation in tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors.

"Pakistan has credible intelligence that India intends to launch a military strike within the next 24 to 36 hours, using the Pahalgam incident as a false pretext," Information Minister Attaullah Tarar wrote on X on Tuesday evening.

"Any act of aggression will be met with a decisive response. India will be fully responsible for any serious consequences in the region," he added.

The escalation comes amid accusations from New Delhi that Islamabad is supporting terrorism in India's Jammu and Kashmir federal territory. Pakistan has denied the claims and, in turn, accused India of backing "terrorist networks" operating on Pakistani soil.

The two countries have a long-standing dispute over the Kashmir region, which is de facto divided by the Line of Control established after the 1971 Indo-Pakistani War.

On April 22, terrorists killed 26 people - mostly Indian tourists - in Pahalgam, located in the northern part of Jammu and Kashmir. The Resistance Front, believed to be an offshoot of the Pakistan-based jihadist group Lashkar-e-Taiba, claimed responsibility for the attack.

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi vowed to punish "the terrorists and their backers." According to NDTV, he has given the army "complete freedom" to determine the response to the attack. Indian media reported on Tuesday that four anti-terror operations were underway in Jammu and Kashmir.
