Pakistan mirrors India's move, ordering its own demolition drive within 15km of border

Thursday, 28 May 2026, 06:25 · 1 min read

Pakistan's interior minister has ordered the demolition of unauthorised buildings within 15 kilometres of the country's border with India, mirroring a similar directive issued by India in recent days. The order, which also calls for stricter enforcement against infiltration, narcotics smuggling, and other cross-border crimes, comes amid still-elevated tensions between the two nuclear-armed neighbours following a brief but deadly four-day war last year. The conflict was triggered by an attack in Indian-administered Kashmir that killed 26 people, mostly Hindu tourists, with India blaming Pakistan-backed militants — a charge Islamabad denied.
