Pakistan and Iran stand on the verge of a breakdown in diplomatic ties after an Iranian missile attack on Pakistan killed two children and injured three others on Tuesday night. On Wednesday, Pakistan recalled its ambassador from Tehran after denouncing the attack and barred Iran’s envoy to Islamabad — who is travelling — from returning to Pakistan.
Islamabad accused Iran of violating Pakistani airspace and Iranian state media said missiles targeted two bases of the Jaish al-Adl armed group.
