The United States on Tuesday again called for calm between India and Pakistan, after Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi warned of stopping water from flowing across borders.
"We continue to urge Pakistan and India to work towards a responsible resolution that maintains long-term peace and regional stability in South Asia," State Department spokeswoman Tammy Bruce told reporters.
She did not comment on Modi's latest comments but said that the United States was "aware of various reports" on the situation and was "engaged."
"We remain in touch with the governments of both countries at multiple levels," she said.
Tensions have soared since gunmen shot dead 26 people in Indian-administered Kashmir, mostly Hindus. India has blamed Pakistan for the attack.
The United States has close relations with India and voiced solidarity after the attack but Secretary of State Marco Rubio last week called top officials from both nuclear-armed nations and advised de-escalation.
