On May 10, 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump announced a "full and immediate" ceasefire between India and Pakistan, brokered after intensive overnight negotiations. The agreement followed escalating hostilities triggered by a deadly attack in Indian-administered Kashmir, which India attributed to Pakistan-based militants. Despite the truce, India accused Pakistan of violating the ceasefire shortly after its initiation, citing missile attacks on Indian air bases. Pakistan denied these allegations, emphasizing its commitment to peace. Both nations have engaged in cross-border strikes, raising concerns of a potential nuclear confrontation. The U.S. continues to urge restraint and dialogue, while the situation remains volatile with mutual distrust and ongoing military readiness on both sides. (PC: Mint)
