  • The dispute escalated in the past two weeks after a suicide bombing killed 41 Indian soldiers in Indian-administered Kashmir.
  • India and Pakistan have both launched air strikes.

  • Both sides have been urged to show restraint.
  • Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has called for talks with the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
  • Can more bloodshed be avoided?
