Both nuclear-armed states confirmed their willing to stop hostilities after days of escalation
India and Pakistan have agreed to cease hostilities, officials from both sides have confirmed. US President Donald Trump earlier said that a deal between the two countries had been reached following a βlong night of talksβ mediated by Washington.
Indiaβs Foreign Ministry has announced that the ceasefire started at 5 p.m. local time.
On Friday, Pakistan launched a large-scale military operation against India called Bunyan Al Marsoos (Unbreakable Wall), in what it said was retaliation for Indian strikes on its territory and the Pakistani-controlled part of Kashmir.
Islamabad described the campaign as a βbefittingβ response to Indian βaggression.β Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar said Pakistan had no choice but to retaliate after India launched Operation Sindoor earlier this week, targeting what it called βterrorist infrastructureβ in Pakistan.
