Kashmir Tensions Escalate Between India and Pakistan

Tensions continue to escalate between India and Pakistan over the disputed Kashmir region bordering the northern parts of both countries.

At least 26 Pakistani civilians are dead and many more are injured after Indian strikes hit nine targets inside Pakistan. 

With both countries armed with a nuclear arsenal, concerns of an all out regional war continue to rise.
