Recent border tensions have hit close to home. India's government reported that 13 civilians lost their lives in ceasefire violations by Pakistani forces since Wednesday. This surge in violence, said to be triggered by Indian strikes, took place in the town of Poonch, where 59 locals were also injured. 💔
Moreover, the Indian Army confirmed that one soldier was killed in Poonch during shelling, bringing the overall death toll on the Indian side to 14. These events have spurred serious concerns, making us all reflect on the human cost of ongoing escalations.
As communities and young professionals keep a close eye on the situation, there is a shared hope for calm and dialogue. Let’s stay informed and work together for a future of peace and understanding. 🕊️
