New York: United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has expressed deep concern over India's recent missile strikes targeting multiple locations in Pakistan and Azad Jammu & Kashmir, calling for maximum military restraint from both sides.

According to Turkey's Anadolu Agency, Guterres' spokesperson Stéphane Dujarric issued a statement highlighting the Secretary-General’s alarm over India’s military actions along the Line of Control (LoC) and the international border.

"The Secretary-General urges both India and Pakistan to exercise maximum restraint. The world cannot afford a military escalation between the two nuclear-armed neighbors," said Dujarric.
