Pakistan has intensified harassment of Indian diplomats in Islamabad in the wake of Operation Sindoor which targetted nine terror camps and eliminated over 100 terrorists, official sources said on Monday.
According to the sources, newspaper deliveries to the Indian High Commission and residences of Indian diplomats have been halted. In a reciprocal move, India has stopped newspaper supplies to Pakistani diplomats stationed in New Delhi.
The escalation also includes aggressive surveillance by Pakistani authorities, with reports of unauthorised entries into Indian diplomatic residences and offices. These actions, sources said, are seen as clear violations of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, which guarantees the safety and dignity of diplomatic staff.
Similar measures were witnessed in 2019 after India’s surgical strikes in the aftermath of the Pulwama terror attack, when Pakistani authorities engaged in sustained pressure tactics against Indian diplomatic personnel.
