  "account": "In April 2025, a terror attack in Pahalgam resulted in the deaths of 26 civilians, prompting India to launch Operation Sindoor on May 7 of the same year. This military operation targeted terror bases in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir, which concluded with a ceasefire on May 10. Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif addressed the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) about the recent four-day military confrontation between India and Pakistan in May 2025. Sharif claimed that Islamabad had exercised its \"inherent right of self-defence\" under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter during the conflict, praising Pakistan's armed forces for their response under Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir. The Pakistani leader also credited U.S. President Donald Trump's \"timely intervention\" in averting an all-out nuclear war. India, however, maintains that the May 2025 ceasefire was reached through direct communication between the two nations, without any third-party involvement. New Delhi's Permanent Mission to the UN, through First Secretary Petal Gahlot, strongly rejected Pakistan's remarks at the UNGA, describing Pakistan as a \"puppet regime\" and highlighting Pakistan's history of cross-border terrorism, democratic rights violations, and treatment of minorities. Gahlot emphasized that India will continue to defend itself against terrorism and that Pakistan's policies and actions will face consequences. Gahlot urged the Assembly to recognize Pakistan's true nature, dismissing repeated falsehoods about Pakistan's terrorism, deceit, and duplicity.",
