Former U.S. President Donald Trump has expressed concern over India’s recent strikes on Pakistan. When asked about the development during a briefing at the White House, Trump called the situation “a shame.”
“We just heard about it as we were walking into the Oval Office,” Trump told reporters. “I just hope it ends very quickly.”
His brief remarks come amid rising international anxiety over escalating tensions between two nuclear-armed nations. Trump’s comments reflect growing calls for restraint as military confrontation deepens in South Asia.

Karachi Under Threat
In a separate but related development, Karachi — Pakistan’s largest city — has been placed on high alert following intelligence reports warning of a possible Indian airstrike.
Authorities have shut down Karachi’s Jinnah International Airport as a precautionary measure. Emergency protocols are in effect across the city.
The Sindh government has imposed Section 144 in areas surrounding the airport. This restricts public gatherings, movement, and access near key installations to prevent any security breaches.
Security personnel, including Rangers and police, have been deployed around sensitive zones, while hospitals remain on standby for any emergency situation.
The airspace over southern Pakistan is being closely monitored as radar and air defense systems stay on high alert.
As tensions continue to rise, both local and international communities watch closely. Pakistan has vowed to respond decisively to Indian aggression, while diplomatic voices urge both sides to de-escalate.
