TENSIONS between India and Pakistan remained high today as both nuclear-armed nations exchanged drone strikes and accusations of military aggression, increasing fears of a larger conflict.

Pakistan’s military said that Indian drones had struck targets inside its territory, wounding four soldiers and killing one civilian.

The strikes, which included Israeli-made Harop drones, reportedly damaged a military site near Lahore and left debris in multiple areas, including the provinces of Rawalpindi and Sindh.
