Islamabad warns that interrupting water flow after New Delhi’s suspension of Indus treaty would be ‘act of war’

The suspension is among several steps India has taken against Pakistan, accusing it of backing cross-border terrorism - a charge Islamabad flatly denies. It has also hit back with reciprocal measures against Delhi, and said stopping water flow "will be considered as an Act of War".

The Pakistani government said that if India followed through on a threat to block rivers it would take it as “an act of war.”
