India’s ‘Unlawful Use Of Force’ In Pakistan After Pahalgam Attack Violated Rights To Life, Security: UN Experts

United Nations human rights experts have stated that India’s “unlawful use of force” inside Pakistan following the Pahalgam attack violated the fundamental rights to life and security. According to the experts, cross-border actions without legal justification undermine international law and pose serious risks to civilian safety. They stressed that all states must respect sovereignty and adhere to human rights obligations, even in counterterrorism contexts. Analysts noted that the remarks add weight to Pakistan’s longstanding concerns over India’s actions and highlight the need for accountability, restraint, and dialogue to prevent further escalation in the region.
