Atomic armed Pakistan and India stood on the edge of the full-scale conflict after days of escalating tension-to US President Donald Trump announced that both nations had accepted an “immediate and full ceasefire.”
Soon, Islamabad and the New Delhi confirmed the agreement to immediately stop all military activities.
Tensions between both countries escalated after the April 22 attack in Pahagam, Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK), killing 26 people. India accused Pakistan-based elements of the assault, but presented no evidence. Islamabad strongly denied the claims.

On April 23, India closed the Wagah boundary transition, recalled Pakistani Visa and announced the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty. Pakistan condemned the move as an “act of war” and responded by sealing the Wagah border on his part.
The confrontation then broke out on May 6 – 7, when India launched his attack on Pakistan, spiraling into the largest military clash between the neighbors for decades. Dozens were killed before the diplomacy was prevalent.
Despite repeated warnings from the Pakistani government, India continued, driven by his media’s war-driven rhetoric, continued provocative actions, including frequent drone penetration, which ultimately caused Pakistan to reciprocate.
