Reference News Network reported on April 24 that according to Associated Press report on April 24, India and Pakistan canceled the visas for each other's citizens on the 24th, as the fatal gunfight in the Kashmir region exacerbated the tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighboring countries. India blamed Pakistan for this incident which caused 26 deaths.

The report said that the Indian government stated that all visas issued to Pakistani citizens would be revoked from the 27th, and all Pakistani citizens currently in India must leave according to the revised schedule before their visa expires.

India also announced other measures, including reducing the number of diplomatic personnel and closing the only available land border crossing between the two countries.

The report also mentioned that in response, Pakistan announced the cancellation of visas for Indian citizens except for Sikh pilgrims, closed its airspace to all airlines owned or operated by India, and suspended all trade with India, including trade via any third country.

The attack on the 22nd was the most serious attack on civilians in this turbulent region in recent years.

The report mentioned that Pakistan denied any connection to this attack.

The Pakistan National Security Council condemned India's "aggressive measures". The committee stated that although Pakistan remains committed to peace, it will not allow anyone to "infringe upon its sovereignty, security, dignity, and inalienable rights". (Compiled/translated by Wang Haifang)
