In April 2025 India announced it would hold the Indus Waters Treaty in abeyance following a terror attack on civilians in Kashmir, marking the first time tensions disrupted the treaty. Following this, the court of arbitration rendered a “supplemental award” on its competence over the dispute in June, in response to a written submission filed by Pakistan. In June the court held that the treaty does not provide for unilateral abeyance and reaffirmed its jurisdiction. Calling the court an “illegal” one, India rejected the supplemental award.
