India and Pakistan clash over Kashmir at UN General Assembly
India and Pakistan traded accusations at the UN General Assembly on Friday, with Islamabad criticizing India's stance on Kashmir and New Delhi accusing Pakistan of supporting cross-border terrorism. Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif called for a "just and fair resolution of the Kashmir dispute," alleging human rights violations and accusing India of "weaponizing" water by holding the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance. India rejected the remarks, with First Secretary Petal Gahlot accusing Pakistan of "terrorism, deceit and duplicity" and warning that support for cross-border terrorism would have consequences. Sharif also referenced military clashes last year, which Pakistan attributes to Indian missile strikes on May 7, while India maintains they were retaliation for an attack in Jammu and Kashmir. Gahlot reiterated India's position that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of the country.
