In a tweet on February 26, Chopra seemed to be cheering an assertion from India that it had released airstrikes in Pakistani territory.
The February 26 airstrikes prompted a retaliatory response from Pakistan, and led to a good sized escalation in hostilities among the two nuclear-armed international locations. India alleged it was concentrated on a terrorist camp, though Pakistan disputed that claim and known as the strikes a political circulate through the Indian government.
India's airstrikes took place two weeks after a deadly bomb attack on security forces in Indian-managed Kashmir, part of Jammu and Kashmir, a disputed vicinity claimed by both international locations in its entirety and which has been a source of warfare for decades. India blamed Pakistan-based militant group Jaish-e-Mohammed for that attack, and accused Pakistan of getting a "direct hand."

Pakistan vehemently denied having a role within the bombing.

The adversarial relationship among the two international locations is back inside the international spotlight after New Delhi moved to downgrade and reorganize the area of Jammu and Kashmir final week. Pakistan decried the flow as unlawful, pronouncing it's going to downgrade diplomatic ties and suspend bilateral alternate with its neighbor.
