# The Indian government says it has launched missile strikes on nine terrorist sites in both Pakistan and Pakistan-administered Kashmir. Pakistan says eight people have been killed, including children, in what prime minister Shehbaz Sharif has described as an act of war. Both India and Pakistan control parts of the contested Kashmir border region. This latest escalation comes after India accused Pakistan of being involved in an attack on Hindu tourists in Kashmir last month, which killed 26 people.
