Conflict has been getting upset since April
The conflict between India and Pakistan has been more and more escalated in the past few days. A terrorist attack of April 22nd in the Indian Union territory Jammu and Kashmir is the trigger of the recent tensions between the two nuclear powers, in which 26 people – mostly Indian tourists – were killed. Neu-Delhi accuses Pakistan. Islamabad rejects this and calls for an independent examination. Since then, battles and tensions have increased again.
India: twelve deaths in Pakistani artillery shot in Kashmir
India and Pakistan have already waged three wars against each other
The actual origins of the conflict between the two countries go back to the colonial period. In 1947 the British released the Indian subcontinent into independence and divided it. In addition to the predominantly Hindu India, the new state of Pakistan for Muslims emerged from the division. The violent division continues to feed a bitter rivalry to this day. Since their independence, the two countries have waged three wars against each other, two of them around the border region Kashmir.
Only today there were new reports of dead and injured in the Himalayar region after renewed attacks.
