Tensions Escalate Between India and Pakistan Over Allegations of Cross-Border Targeted Killings
- Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh appeared to confirm India is carrying out an assassination campaign in Pakistan in a TV interview.
- Singh's remarks follow a Guardian report saying at least 20 individuals were murdered in Pakistan since 2020 at the behest of Indian operatives.
- Pakistan officially condemned Singh's "provocative remarks" and said it provided evidence of India's involvement in extrajudicial killings on Pakistani soil.
- Pakistan said India's actions violate its sovereignty and breach the UN Charter.
- Pakistan called for the international community to hold India accountable for the extraterritorial killings.
