The United Nations has renewed its call for “maximum restraint” in the wake of India’s missile attacks on parts of Pakistan and Azad Jammu and Kashmir that took innocent lives and prompted retaliatory action, APP reports.
Responding to questions at a news briefing at UN Headquarters in New York, UN Spokesperson Stephanie Tramblay reiterated that the world cannot afford a military confrontation between the two South Asian neighbours.
Asked whether the UN personnel serving the United Nations Observer Group in India and Pakistan, which monitors the Line of Control, were safe, she said, “Yes, we checked and everybody was safe. “
