According to Pakistani authorities, India launched missiles into Pakistani territory on Wednesday, resulting in at least one fatality and two injuries.
India stated that their strikes targeted nine locations allegedly used for planning terrorist actions against India.
According to a Pakistani security source, one missile struck a mosque in Bahawalpur, Punjab, resulting in the death of a child and injuries to a woman and a man.
This attack occurs amidst heightened tensions between the two nuclear powers, following a militant attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir two weeks prior, which resulted in 26 deaths and numerous injuries among tourists.
India has implicated Pakistan in the attack, an allegation the Pakistani government has refuted. Both nations have a long-standing dispute over Kashmir, a territory they both claim.
This is a developing story.
