Pakistan’s Defence Minister warned that nuclear war with India could break out “at any time” amid escalating tensions following Indian airstrikes.

Pakistan accused India of targeting civilians in what it called an “act of war,” while India claimed it struck terrorist sites linked to a deadly attack in Kashmir.

Both nations have exchanged missile fire, with Pakistan vowing a retaliatory response, the U.S. Sun has reported.

Global leaders, including the UK, US, and UN, have urged de-escalation as fears of full-scale war grow and casualties mount on both sides.
