In light of escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, global leaders are urging restraint. Following a retaliatory missile strike by India after a terror attack in Pahalgam, the risk of military conflict looms large over South Asia.

UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres has appealed for 'maximum military restraint' from both countries. US President Donald Trump, echoing similar sentiments, expressed hope that hostilities would 'end very quickly' and labeled the situation as a history of clashes.

International voices, including Russia, UAE, and Japan, have strongly advised India and Pakistan to engage in peaceful dialogue to prevent further military escalation. The global community has emphasized the need for diplomacy and communication to achieve lasting peace in the region.
