India bans all imports from Pakistan, suspends inbound mail as tensions grow

India said on Saturday it has banned the import of goods originating from or transiting via Pakistan and suspended the exchange of inbound mail and parcels as diplomatic tensions between the two nations flared in the wake of a deadly attack in occupied Kashmir.

The April 22 attack in Pahalgam killed 26 people, mostly tourists, in one of the deadliest assaults since 2000. India has implied cross-border links without evidence, while Pakistan has rejected the claim and called for a neutral probe.
