"Two weeks after a deadly attack on tourists in Kashmir on April 22, India announced that it had conducted “precise and restrained” strikes on what it called “terrorist camps” in neighboring Pakistan. Pakistan said it had shot down five Indian planes in retaliation.
The clash will come as little surprise to anyone familiar with the history of India’s relations with Pakistan since their violent and bloody partition into two nations, following independence from Britain in 1947.
They have been at loggerheads ever since, with tensions occasionally boiling over into armed conflict. The main focus of the rivalry is Kashmir, an area of the Himalayas that both India and Pakistan claim in its entirety while governing separate parts."
