# Pakistan said India launched missiles at key military bases, including a base close to the capital of Islamabad. Pakistan’s military said it had launched an operation against India in retaliation to those latest strikes. The rapid escalation of tension between the neighbouring states was sparked by the massacre of tourists last month in Indian-controlled Kashmir. In response, India said it was targeting terrorist infrastructure in both Pakistan and Kashmir. Both sides have since accused each other of taking escalatory steps, including firing drones and missiles at each other despite calls for restraint from the international community.
