    Smartly dressed and softly spoken, Mohammed Reza Sazish, 26, tries hard not to be noticed on the rare occasions he leaves the apartment he’s renting in the outskirts of Islamabad. A civil rights activist who fled to Pakistan from Afghanistan, he fears being caught up in a mass deportation drive that has seen close to 200,000 Afghans pushed out of the country in the past six weeks. For Sazish, being forced back to Afghanistan could be a matter of life and death.

    The ceasefire between India and Pakistan is largely holding, despite both sides accusing each other of violations. Hours after the truce, heavy exchanges of fire were reported last night, but subsided this morning. The latest violence began after 26 tourists were killed in Indian-controlled Kashmir. India blamed the attack on Pakistan – which has denied any involvement – and says it has killed more than 100 militants. Today, both countries are assessing the damage caused in the conflict.

    Explosions have been heard tonight in parts of Indian-administered Kashmir – with Pakistan accused of launching another wave of drone strikes. Earlier India claimed it had intercepted hundreds of Pakistani drones which it said were on the way to target cities and military bases. Pakistan described the allegations as “baseless and misleading” and denied any “offensive actions”.
