India and Pakistan have agreed to a U.S.-brokered ceasefire following deadly cross-border hostilities sparked by the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, which killed 26 Hindu tourists. India attributed the attack to Pakistan-based militants, leading to "Operation Sindoor," a 23-minute airstrike campaign targeting terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan. Despite the ceasefire, India maintains a firm stance, continuing the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty and enforcing diplomatic and trade restrictions. Sources indicate the ceasefire is conditional, with no change in India's position on the treaty. The situation remains tense, with both nations on high alert and international actors urging restraint to prevent further escalation.(PC: Hindustan Times & The Indian Express)
