India has warned Pakistan via a "hotline message" about alleged ceasefire violations, stating its intent to retaliate if they continue, though Pakistan denies any breaches. This comes as a fragile 24-hour ceasefire, brokered with US diplomacy after four days of intense fighting involving missiles and drones that killed around 70 people, appeared to be holding. Despite initial claims of violations in Indian Kashmir, Pakistan's military insists it has not broken the truce. India's DGMO stated its forces remain on high alert and have the authority to respond to any violations, revealing that his Pakistani counterpart requested the ceasefire.
While Pakistan acknowledged US facilitation and welcomed mediation on Kashmir, India has not commented on US involvement, maintaining that disputes should be resolved bilaterally. Trump praised both nations for agreeing to the ceasefire and promised increased trade. The recent conflict has displaced border residents, and while some areas are returning to normalcy, others remain cautious due to potential unexploded ordnance. A key power plant in Indian Kashmir, damaged in a drone attack, is still under repair.
