Canada's auto manufacturers agree on the goal: get U.S. tariffs on Canadian-built vehicles down. They do not agree on how fast to move or what to accept.

Tensions Escalate: Pakistan Warns of Imminent Indian Strike


In a significant development, Pakistan's Information Minister, Attaullah Tarar, has claimed that the country possesses "credible intelligence" indicating that India plans to launch a military strike within the next 24 to 36 hours. This assertion comes amidst heightened tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbors following a deadly attack in Indian-administered Kashmir that claimed 26 lives.

Tarar stated that India intends to use the recent Pahalgam incident as a pretext for aggression, a claim that India has not yet commented on. Pakistan has denied any involvement in the attack and has called for a neutral investigation. Meanwhile, both nations have taken retaliatory measures, with India suspending the Indus Waters Treaty and Pakistan closing its airspace to Indian flights.

The situation has drawn international attention, with fears of escalation between the two countries. Pakistan has warned that any act of aggression will be met with a decisive response, emphasizing that India would bear full responsibility for any consequences in the region.

The unfolding events underscore the fragile relationship between the two nations, with the world watching closely for further developments.
