Travel warning for India-Pakistan border raised to ‘red’ due to conflict

On May 7, 2025, multiple governments raised their travel warnings to 'red' for the India-Pakistan border amid escalating military conflict and heightened tensions around Kashmir and Punjab regions.
The warnings followed recent Indian airstrikes on Pakistan and Pakistan's attempted strikes on military sites, which intensified an already volatile security situation near the border.
European countries including the Netherlands, Sweden, Finland, and the UK urged citizens to avoid high-risk zones within 10 kilometers of the border, while airlines rerouted flights and India canceled Prime Minister Modi's planned European trips.
EVA Airways reported one flight affected by Pakistan's 48-hour airspace closure, with the airline rerouting European flights and increasing flight times by 20 to 30 minutes, while Chinese airlines permitted free ticket changes.
The escalated conflict prompted Indian IT companies to enforce work-from-home policies and restrict travel, while ministries urged vigilance, advising citizens to avoid border areas and stay updated as the situation remains unpredictable.
