Pakistan has begun what it describes as retaliatory military operations against India, according to announcements aired late on 9 May by state broadcaster PTV, which cited unnamed security officials. The move follows claims of an earlier Indian missile strike on Pakistani territory the same evening. Reuters, citing witnesses, reported at least four explosions shortly before midnight in the northern Indian city of Amritsar and in the Jammu region of India-administered Kashmir. There were no immediate details on casualties or damage, and Indian authorities had yet to issue a formal statement, though the country’s military was expected to brief reporters. The latest exchanges mark a rapid escalation in tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours. Both governments have exchanged accusations of aggression in the past, but large-scale cross-border strikes are rare. Regional observers are watching closely for official confirmation of the scope of the current operations and any diplomatic efforts to de-escalate.
