India's long-standing practice of making unverified allegations against Pakistan has come under renewed scrutiny during the reecnt escalation of tensions between the two nuclear-armed South Asian neighbours.
The United States has adopted a neutral position on India's latest accusations, declining to endorse New Delhi’s claims due to a lack of credible intelligence evidence, according to credible sources.
The controversy centres around what analysts describe as a failed "false flag" attempt by India to implicate Pakistan without substantiated proof.
US officials, including Spokesperson for the United States Department of State Tammy Bruce, have reportedly refrained from confirming any intelligence backing India's assertions, highlighting instead the importance of responsible dialogue between both nuclear-armed neighbors.
“We are in contact with both countries and support a responsible resolution,” Bruce stated.
“We will not comment on intelligence matters or diplomatic messages,” she added, reaffirming Washington’s neutral approach.
Analysts maintain that US silence has cast doubt on India's narrative, with some experts questioning why India resists independent investigations if it possesses genuine evidence.
Bruce further emphasised, " We want the perpetrators to be held accountable and will support efforts to that end."
Defense experts in Pakistan have welcomed Washington’s apparent validation of Pakistan's call for a transparent international inquiry.
