India recently suspended the 1960 Indus Waters Treaty with Pakistan, citing cross-border terrorism.

In this article for @theconversation.com geographer @mehebubsahana.bsky.social looks at the consequences of weaponising water, as more than a regional threat but one for global climate security.
India-Pakistan conflict over water reflects a region increasingly vulnerable to climate change
Water treaties should be rewritten to factor in climate change and new geopolitical realities.

[1/8] Le géographe @mehebubsahana.bsky.social (Univ Manchester) analyse la suspension par l’Inde du traité de l’Indus signé en 1960. Ce geste inédit illustre une nouvelle géopolitique de l’eau en Asie du Sud, marquée par la défiance, la rivalité stratégique et la pression climatique. #geography

China plans to build the world’s largest dam – but what does this mean for India and Bangladesh downstream?
The Yarlung Tansgpo / Brahmaputra dam shows we often don’t know how to deal with rivers that cross national borders.
