Pakistan military alleges Indian missile attack on air bases

Singapore is gravely concerned about the ongoing military confrontation between India and Pakistan following the heinous terror attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, on April 22."

In a statement on Friday, Singapore's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) said

We, the G7 Foreign Ministers of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States of America and the High Representative of the European Union, strongly condemn the egregious terrorist attack in Pahalgam on April 22 and urge maximum restraint from both India and Pakistan,

a press release read

We call on both parties to de-escalate tensions through diplomatic means and ensure the safety of all civilians,

it said

We call for immediate de-escalation and encourage both countries to engage in direct dialogue towards a peaceful outcome,

the G7 statement said

Donald Trumppresident

They’ve had that fight for a thousand years in Kashmir,” and “probably longer than that.”

As President Trump recently put it — inaccurately

Further military escalation poses a serious threat to regional stability,

the G7 statement read

At the same time, its nomenclature is mean to give the group some sort of secular character and a contemporary ideology that distances it from the LeT,

he said

We are going to be meeting with the [monitoring] team again very soon and we will be providing an update to the information that we have provided earlier,

Misri told a media briefing on Thursday

The efforts for listing the TRF have been on for some time. We will provide more information to give a fresh push for the listing,

one of the people cited above said

Few individuals are more integral to LeT’s fundraising than Hafiz Abdur Rauf

the US treasury department said at the time of his listing

When the parent organisations are under sanctions, these new groups are free to act,

he said

Our life is worth nothing. At any time entire families could be wiped out,

said Naseer Ahmed Khan, 50, whose village lies near the Line of Control (LoC) that divides the disputed Kashmir region between Pakistan and India

They should know that the escalation ladder is always unpredictable,

he said

We will not de-escalate − with the damages they did on our side, they should take a hit."

Military spokesman Ahmed Sharif Chaudhry told media

The India-Pakistan conflict may emerge as a proxy war where India is backed by the U.S. and Pakistan is backed by China,

Abrahms said

For China, the stakes are high. Pakistan is its closest ally, and Beijing would not like to see it humiliated,

Sadanand Dhume, senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), told Fox News Digital

Seen through the prism of U.S.-China competition, each country has a 'side' in this conflict. China is joined at the hip with Pakistan, whereas the U.S. and India have grown increasingly close over the past two decades,

Dhume added

Balochistan may soon acquire a de-facto independence. China will be one of the main losers of such a development, as it has heavily invested in the Gwadar Port, located in the Balochistan province of Pakistan,

Carmon said

If Pakistan suffers a humiliating defeat, it would weaken the military’s grip on the country,

AEI’s Dhume said

Although I don’t see an imminent possibility of Pakistan breaking up or a spillover of the conflict into Iran or Afghanistan, the conflict could fundamentally alter the relationship between the military and the civilian government and population, which has already been in decline,
