😱😱India unexpectedly released a large volume of water into the Jhelum River without prior notice to Pakistan, leading to a sudden spike in water levels near Muzaffarabad❗
In response, authorities declared a water emergency in Hattian Bala and used mosque loudspeakers to alert residents to remain cautious. The fast-moving water, originating from Anantnag and passing through Chakothi, caused panic among those living along the riverbanks. This incident raises concerns about the Indus Waters Treaty, a historic agreement that has endured through even times of conflict.
Pakistan's National Security Committee (NSC) has called on international organizations to closely monitor the situation and stressed the importance of peaceful measures to prevent further escalation between the two nations.
