Key Considerations of India and Pakistan War 2025

In April 2025, a devastating terrorist attack in Kashmir reignited long-standing tensions between India and Pakistan, leading to a dangerous military escalation. India launched airstrikes under Operation Sindoor, targeting militant camps in Pakistan-administered areas. Pakistan responded with Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos, striking key Indian military facilities. The conflict has featured advanced air combat, drone warfare, and missile deployments, drawing intense global concern.

As both nuclear-armed nations exchange fire, the humanitarian cost continues to rise — with dozens of civilian casualties, mass displacement, and a growing refugee crisis in border regions. The international community, including the U.S., China, and the UN, is calling for urgent de-escalation. The crisis now stands at a critical juncture: either diplomacy prevails, or the region faces the risk of deeper, potentially catastrophic confrontation.
