India Suspends Indus Waters Treaty Provisions, Pakistan Raises Water Security Concerns

Since April 2025, India has suspended key provisions of the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty following a terror attack linked to Pakistan, linking treaty cooperation to Pakistan's alleged support for terrorism. India stopped sharing hydrological data and flood warnings, prompting Pakistan to raise alarms at the UN about water insecurity and regional stability risks. Pakistan, heavily reliant on the Indus river system for agriculture, has responded with diplomatic efforts and domestic warnings, viewing disruptions as a critical threat to its water security and national interest.
