 File under: Govt of Pakistan 

#1 Over US night, so far, 2 Indian planes shot down and one Pakistani F-16 shot down.
One Indian pilot captured.

Situation appears to be heating up not cooling off.

#2 Now Pakistan reports a 2nd captured pilot and India reports the loss of a MI-17 Hind due to mechanical problems (4 dead with the chopper).

#3 Commercial airspace closed in Pakistan and in northern India. (India not official just defacto)

#5 and they both have nukes.

#6 Two generations later, Hiroshima and Nagasaki recovered from the bombs dropped on them. If Pakistan acts on its threats in that direction, they’re toast.

#7 Nukes: at least 140 warheads or so on each side. India may have 150.

Pakistan far more fragile if it comes to that.
