The Pakistani Civil Aviation Authority has temporarily closed the country’s airspace to all traffic.
Meanwhile, global calls for ending the conflict are growing.
The G7 foreign ministers of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Britain, and the US and the European Union's high representative for foreign affairs on Friday expressed concern over the India-Pakistan conflict and the threat it poses to regional stability.
"We call for immediate de-escalation and encourage both countries to engage in direct dialogue towards a peaceful outcome. We continue to monitor events closely and express our support for a swift and lasting diplomatic resolution," the G7 statement said.
