Pakistan’s information minister said early Wednesday that
Islamabad had "credible intelligence" India was planning an
imminent military strike, vowing a "decisive response" amid
rising tensions over a Kashmir attack. The statement followed
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s meeting with security
chiefs, at which he gave them "complete operational freedom",
a government source told AFP.

The risk of a nukewar is kinda HIGH here.
Given population densities and crappy support
infrastructure, even a "limited" nukewar would
easily kill tens of millions and cripple an
equal number - a real horror-show.
India/Pakistan has LONG been The Most Likely Place
for a nuclear war. They HATE each other and tend to
view nukes as "simply bigger bombs".
Then the fallout drifts into Chinese territory,
giving them an ironclad excuse to swoop in and
grab everything .........
