The truce was announced on May 10, 2025 at 2:06 p.m. ET and came after the most expansive conflict between the two nations in decades.
According to Indian foreign secretary Vikram Misri, the cease-fire was breached by Pakistan earlier today. However, there were reports of continued violence despite the agreement.
In Srinagar, India, red objects were seen flying through the sky and Indian forces were seen patrolling the area after reports of explosions near the border. In Multan, Pakistan, celebrations broke out after the announcement of the cease-fire.
India’s foreign secretary, Vikram Misri, confirmed the cease-fire and a video was released on the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs YouTube channel. In Arnia, Kashmir, a home was damaged by cross-border shelling and in Lahore, Pakistan, people shared sweets to celebrate the news.
In Jammu, Kashmir, a resident looked out of a window after an aerial attack from Pakistan and smoke was seen rising after an explosion in the India-controlled part of Kashmir. In Shah Kot, Kashmir, a house was damaged by Indian shelling and in Rawalpindi, Pakistan, security personnel were seen cordoning off a road near the Nur Khan air base after missile strikes.
Despite the announcement of the cease-fire, there were reports of continued shelling along the border at night. President Trump announced the cease-fire on his social media site and claimed that it was mediated by the United States. While Indian and Pakistani officials confirmed the cease-fire, only Pakistan acknowledged the American role.
As night fell, there were indications that the cease-fire was not entirely holding, with reports of cross-border firing in some areas of the Indian part of Kashmir.
