Pakistan and India have agreed to stop all firing and military action on land, air, and sea, effective from 1700 hours Indian Standard Time today. The decision was made after a call between the Director Generals of Military Operations of both countries earlier today.
According to sources, the two sides have issued instructions to implement this understanding, with talks scheduled for May 12 at 1200 hours. This development comes as a significant relief to both nations, which have been engaged in tensions over recent weeks.
The agreement marks a significant step towards de-escalating tensions between Pakistan and India, two nuclear-armed neighbors with a complex history of conflict. The move is seen as a positive step towards improving relations and reducing the risk of miscalculation or accident.
Details of the agreement are still emerging, but officials say that both sides have committed to respecting each other's territorial integrity and sovereignty. This decision is expected to have significant implications for regional security and stability.
The international community has welcomed this development, with many expressing hope that it marks a new chapter in the complex and often fraught relationship between Pakistan and India.
