India strikes Pakistan: What does it mean?

CFR expert Manjari Chatterjee Miller breaks down the current escalation of conflict between India and Pakistan in the decades-long border dispute within the region of Kashmir. In a series of military strikes dubbed as Operation Sindoor, Indian officials said they struck "terrorist infrastructure" within Pakistan and Pakistani-administered Kashmir. Those strikes were in response to a deadly terrorist attack on primarily Hindu tourists in the town of Pahalgam on April 22. Miller analyzes what that attack could mean for the region, the risk of nuclear conflict, and future U.S. diplomatic relations with India and Pakistan.
