'Terrorists talked to masterminds in Pakistan': Foreign secretary Vikram Misri briefs Parliament panel on Pahalgam attack probe
Monday, 19 May 2025 Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri briefed a parliamentary panel on the Pahalgam attack investigation, revealing that terrorists communicated with masterminds in Pakistan. He highlighted the presence of UN-designated terrorists freely operating in Pakistan and inciting violence against India, further emphasizing a nexus between terrorists, the Pakistani military intelligence, and civilian administration. The conflict remained conventional, with a truce established bilaterally.
In a bold and unequivocal message, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has dismissed US President Donald Trump’s claim of brokering a ceasefire between India and Pakistan. After a high-stakes phone call post-G7 Summit, India clarified that all communications with Pakistan were strictly bilateral — handled via military channels with no third-party involvement. Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri emphasized India’s long-standing position against external mediation and underlined full political unanimity on the issue. Modi also told Trump that India now views terrorism as "actual war, not proxy war", following the deadly Pahalgam attack that claimed 26 lives.

Israel’s Gaza military operations are triggering a growing diplomatic backlash, with Australia and New Zealand signaling plans to formally recognize a Palestinian state at the UN this September. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the move aligns with global momentum for a two-state solution, joined by more than 15 nations including France, the UK, and Canada. Albanese and New Zealand’s Foreign Minister Winston Peters have also criticized Israel’s defiance of international law, warning that Gaza’s situation has reached catastrophic levels.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas is expected to announce a unilateral declaration of Palestinian statehood at the September UN General Assembly, outlining borders and constitutional principles until a full constitution is passed. France, the UK, and other nations signal possible recognition, with President Macron pledging support. Israel’s National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir has condemned the plan, urging Netanyahu to dismantle the PA. The move could mark a turning point in Palestine’s international recognition strategy, but risks sparking intense political backlash.

Israeli forces launched multiple ground incursions into Syria’s southwestern Quneitra province, setting up checkpoints, searching residents, and deploying tanks before withdrawing hours later. According to Syrian state media, IDF convoys entered several towns, breaching the 1974 ceasefire agreement that established a buffer zone near the occupied Golan Heights. Damascus and its allies accuse Israel of exploiting Syria’s instability for territorial gains. The United Nations has condemned repeated Israeli violations, warning they risk escalating regional tensions and destabilizing the volatile Syria–Israel border.
