US EditionTrump weighs in on India-Pakistan strikes: ‘I hope it ends very quickly’
- On May 6, 2025, Indian forces conducted missile strikes against terrorist sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir in retaliation for a fatal assault on tourists in the Pahalgam region of Indian-controlled Kashmir.
- The strikes followed the Pahalgam massacre where Pakistan-based militants killed 26 people, prompting India to initiate Operation Sindoor against terrorist infrastructure.
- The missile strikes hit locations including Bahawalpur, Kotli, and Muzaffarabad, and Pakistan responded by closing its airspace to Indian flights for one month and vowed retaliation.
- US President Donald Trump called the situation "a shame" and expressed hope it ends "very quickly," while the US and other global powers urged restraint and offered condolences to India.
- This escalation highlights the imminent risk of short- and medium-term breakdowns in India-Pakistan relations and underscores the ongoing nuclear crisis threat without diplomatic resolution.
