Tue Apr 29 02:21:32 UTC 2025: ## India-Pakistan Tensions Rise After Pahalgam Terror Attack
**NEW DELHI, INDIA – April 29, 2025** – Tensions between India and Pakistan have escalated following a deadly terror attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, that killed 26 people. Pakistan’s Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif warned of an imminent Indian military incursion in response to the attack.
“We have reinforced our forces because it is something which is imminent now,” Asif told Reuters in an interview on Monday. He indicated that Pakistan has made strategic decisions in anticipation of potential Indian action.
The Pahalgam attack has ignited outrage in India, leading to calls for strong retaliation against Pakistan. Meanwhile, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) is investigating the attack. NIA investigators have already interviewed the wife of one of the victims, Dr. Sujatha, at her home in Mathikere, gathering details about the attack and the assailants.
The heightened tensions raise serious concerns about the potential for further escalation between the two nuclear-armed neighbors. The situation remains highly volatile.
