On April 28, 2025, renewed cross-border fire was reported between Indian and Pakistani forces along the Line of Control (LoC), specifically in the Poonch and Kotli sectors. While no civilian casualties were confirmed, the incident has prompted mutual accusations of ceasefire violations. This marks one of the more serious escalations since early 2024. Military analysts warn that global distraction may embolden regional actors, increasing the chance of miscalculation between two nuclear-armed states.Sources
