Dozens of people have been killed in the worst fighting between India and Pakistan in more than two decades. India attacked nine locations in Pakistan and Pakistani-controlled Kashmir early Wednesday, killing at least 26 people, including a child. Pakistan described the attacks as an act of war and responded by shelling areas controlled by India. Tensions have been soaring between the two nuclear-armed states since gunmen massacred 26 tourists in Indian-administered Kashmir in a rampage that India blamed on Pakistan.
Kashmiri journalist and award-winning novelist Mirza Waheed says that as the countries fight, the people of Kashmir get left behind. “When elephants fight, it’s the grass that gets trampled upon,” said Waheed.
