Investing.com -- In light of recent fighting in South Asia, the Chinese embassies in India and Pakistan issued advisories last Friday, urging Chinese citizens to increase safety measures and exercise caution while traveling in the region. This comes as the worst regional conflict in nearly 30 years unfolds.
The tension between India and Pakistan, both nuclear-armed nations, has escalated since India launched strikes on multiple locations in Pakistan last Wednesday. India claimed these locations were "terrorist camps", and the strikes were in response to a deadly attack on Hindu tourists in Indian Kashmir the previous month.
The embassies in both India and Pakistan have advised Chinese citizens to stay informed about the situation and strengthen their security precautions, according to separate statements from the embassies.
The Chinese embassy in Nepal also issued a warning via its social media account last Friday. It advised Chinese citizens to avoid areas along the Nepal-India border.
