Bible Rebel continues to keep a watchdog’s eye on events around the world.
But don’t be overly troubled, remember the words of our Lord in Matthew 24:6-8.
And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Here’s the latest:
Pakistan Claims It Downed Indian Drone
Pakistan’s army reported shooting down an Indian quadcopter in the Manawar sector of Bhimber, Kashmir, along the Line of Control (LoC). This follows escalating tensions after an April 22 attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, which killed 26 civilians. India has accused Pakistan of supporting the attackers, leading to retaliatory measures such as suspending the Indus Waters Treaty and closing the Wagah-Attari border. Pakistan responded by shutting its airspace to Indian flights and halting trade. Both nations have increased military posturing, with Pakistan upgrading airbases and India testing anti-ship missiles.

India and Pakistan on War Footing
A terror attack in Kashmir has pushed India and Pakistan closer to conflict. India claims the attack was cross-border terrorism supported by Pakistan and has vowed to retaliate. In response, India suspended the Indus Waters Treaty, depriving Pakistan of crucial water resources. Pakistan condemned this as an “act of war.” Both sides have put their forces on high alert, with low-level clashes occurring along the LoC. The historical dispute over Kashmir continues to fuel tensions, with India revoking Article 370 in 2019 to bring the region under its control, further straining relations.
