Nuclear Neighbors on Edge: The Enduring Conflict Between India and Pakistan

The consequences of a nuclear war between India and Pakistan would be catastrophic, not only for the two nations directly involved but for the entire world. Even a limited nuclear exchange could result in millions of immediate deaths and injuries. The long-term effects would be equally devastating, including widespread environmental damage, nuclear fallout, and a potential "nuclear winter" scenario that could disrupt global climate patterns and agricultural production, leading to famine and widespread suffering far beyond the subcontinent.
