After four intense days of military strikes, Pakistan and India announced on Saturday an immediate ceasefire 🛑. The decision came as both sides faced escalating military actions along their shared border.
However, within hours, accusations of ceasefire violations surfaced and explosions were reported in several border cities and towns 💥. This back-and-forth exchange highlights that while the ceasefire is in place, tension still lingers.
In a bid to further promote peace, Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi stated that China hopes for and supports an early ceasefire between Pakistan and India, and is ready to play a constructive role in easing the situation.
As the region watches closely, many are hoping this move will pave the way for lasting peace and stability in an area known for its dynamic and often unpredictable conflicts.
