In a closed-door UN Security Council session, members raised strong concerns over Pakistan’s nuclear rhetoric and recent missile tests, following the Pahalgam terror attack in India that killed 26 civilians. Pakistan attempted to shift focus by bringing up the Kashmir issue and accusing India of military aggression. However, members rejected its narrative and highlighted possible Lashkar-e-Taiba involvement. No resolution or statement was issued, leaving Pakistan isolated—even China refrained from endorsing its stance. UN Secretary-General António Guterres urged restraint, warning that India-Pakistan tensions are at their highest in years and a military confrontation must be avoided at all costs. (PC: India Today)
