By Charlotte Greenfield ISLAMABAD (Reuters) -Pakistan is preparing international legal action over India's suspension of a key river water-sharing treaty, a government minister told Reuters, as tensions intensify between the neighbours following an attack on tourists in India-administered Kashmir.

India has blocked access to Pakistan Defence Minister Khawaja Asif’s X account within the country as tensions rise between the two nations. The minister has made a series of explosive claims, warning of an ‘imminent’ Indian military incursion.

NEW DELHI — A deadly attack on tourists in Indian-controlled Kashmir has again moved India and Pakistan closer to war as the two rivals downgraded diplomatic and trade ties, closed the main border crossing and revoked visas for each other’s nationals.
