In response to recent terrorist attacks on India, they've launched missile and drone attacks on Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied territory. Pakistan responded with artillery fire and claim to have shot down a couple of Indian jets (more likely drones).
USA and China getting involved diplomatically - which they need to do, but I'm not sure either can actually help. China are another adversary locally, whilst USA are wildly incompetent currently (Trump pointing out that these two countries have been fighting over Kashmir for 1500 years... erm... yeah)
Hope to gods this has satisfied egos, thumped some chests, and everyone can sit back down again. Otherwise this has the potential get very nasty, very quickly.

If India continues with its threat to cut off those rivers and essentially starve millions, there'll be full-scale war.

The problem is that this is a real flashpoint and both sides seem to want to compare dick sizes, which is a bit dangerous. Hopefully some self preservation kicks in before nukes are fired/dropped, but it wouldn’t surprise me if this escalated a bit more yet.

I see the Chinese basically shot down 5 Indian planes and have this wrapped up already?
Modi has forced twitter to close the accounts of 8,000 indoan citizens critical of the attack........so much for the free speech absolutists. The strong men are very sensitive

Trump declares peace in India (and claims all the credit).
3 hours later, missiles are flying again.

Brilliant. Great kid.
Journalist calls for complete destruction of a country.
Kid destroys journalist.
Who taught you what, that everyone's human??
Nice to see the journalist got his name and home so the psychos know where to go to get their revenge.
