According to Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, US Vice President JD Vance alerted Prime Minister Narendra Modi of the possibility of a massive Pakistani attack on the evening of May 9 and urged India to agree to certain terms in order to avoid escalation.
New Delhi blamed Islamabad for the April 22 Pahalgam bombing without providing any proof, sparking intense warfare between nuclear-armed Pakistan and India in the most recent escalation of a decades-old conflict.
According to Jaishankar, who spoke with the US media source, JD Vance called Prime Minister Modi directly and threatened to unleash a big attack if India did not make concessions on specific issues.
