In the aftermath of the deadly Pahalgam terrorist attack on April 22, 2025—which resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians—Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made strong statements signaling a dramatic shift in India's security and foreign policy stance. Speaking with urgency, he declared, “Our time is limited. Goals are big,” implying that the country may soon abandon traditional, predictable responses in favor of bold and unexpected actions. His remarks have raised speculation that India is preparing to adopt a new strategy that could surprise not only Pakistan but also the global community.

Following the attack, India has taken several decisive steps, including suspending the Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan, expelling Pakistani diplomats, and shutting down key border crossings. These actions mark a significant escalation in the ongoing diplomatic crisis and suggest that India is preparing for a broader and more assertive response. Analysts believe that this could include measures unlike any seen before, potentially reshaping regional dynamics and sending a strong message against cross-border terrorism.

Crowds filled the streets of Tehran on Saturday for the funeral of top Iranian commanders and nuclear scientists killed during a 12-day war with Israel. Among the dead were Revolutionary Guard chief Gen. Hossein Salami and missile program head Gen. Amir Ali Hajizadeh. Caskets were driven through Azadi Street as mourners chanted “Death to America” and “Death to Israel.” State media reported over 1 million attendees, though that figure could not be verified.⁠
⁠
The funeral was attended by senior officials, including Gen. Esmail Qaani and Gen. Ali Shamkhani, who was wounded in the initial Israeli strike. Shamkhani said he awoke for dawn prayer to find his home destroyed. “Suddenly everything around me had become ruins,” he said. In total, 60 people were honored, including women and children.⁠
⁠
Israel claims it killed 30 commanders and 11 scientists and struck eight nuclear sites. Iran launched more than 550 missiles in response, killing 28 people in Israel. President Donald Trump said talks with Iran could resume, but Iran’s parliament suspended cooperation with international inspectors. “If President Trump is genuine about wanting a deal,” wrote Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, “he should put aside the disrespectful and unacceptable tone towards Iran’s Supreme Leader.”⁠
