India and Pakistan's Director Generals of Military Operations (DGMOs) are scheduled to hold talks on May 12, 2025, following a U.S.-brokered ceasefire that has calmed the Line of Control after recent escalations. The ceasefire, announced by U.S. President Donald Trump, came after intense cross-border firing triggered by a deadly attack in Pahalgam, which India attributes to Pakistan, a claim Islamabad denies. Both nations conducted retaliatory strikes, resulting in civilian casualties and school closures. India has warned of responses to any ceasefire violations, while Pakistan denies any breaches. The ceasefire has positively impacted equity markets in both countries. While Pakistan welcomes U.S. mediation on Kashmir, India insists on bilateral resolution, rejecting third-party involvement.
