India and Pakistan accused each other of violating the truce hours after the deal was reached

Violations of the Constitution: The Pakistan-Indian Interaction is Dominated by Drones and Projectiles, according to the Vice President

The current attack by India and Pakistan on each other using drones and projectiles is “fundamentally nothing of our business” according to the Vice President.

The question about if the Trump administration was worried about a nuclear conflict was posed by a Fox News reporter. “We want this thing to de-escalate as quickly as possible,” and added: “We can’t control these countries though.”

“What we can do is try to encourage these folks to de-escalate a little bit, but we are not going to get involved in the middle of a war that’s not American’s business and has nothing to do with America’s ability to control it.”

He didn’t think that a nuclear war was likely because the administration was pursuing de-escalation through diplomatic channels. The Secretary of State spoke with the foreign minister and the prime minister of Pakistan.

Donthi said that Washington may have been sympathetic to India’s grievances, which appears to have come to the conclusion that letting this play out a bit more is actually helping to confront the threat of terror.

A columnist for the liberal newspaper Dawn said that Vance’s comments signaled a more hands-off foreign policy. Washington worked diligently to dial down tensions during the previous bouts.

She said that she does not think that there is another power out there that would be willing to step up and save the two countries from themselves. Now more than ever, she described them as “two nuclear powers that are inherently in a very unstable situation.”

The tension in Kashmir began in late April when 26 people, mostly Hindu tourists, were killed. India insisted the gunmen were proxies for the Pakistani military. Pakistan denies any connection to the attack.

In a response to Pakistan, India launched missiles across that country. Pakistan said it downed five Indian aircraft. The two sides have been fighting for a long time.

Two projectiles were fired near a military cantonment in Pakistan on Friday. Residents filmed one careering to the ground, spinning across a field while emitting plumes of smoke as young men dashed out of the way. Both residents requested anonymity due to their desire to not anger Pakistani authorities, who have not commented on the incident.

“There were dozens of fireballs in the sky,” said Gowher Ahmad, 43, of Jammu city, of the overnight barrage. Ahmad said he was worried about the night, but Friday was quiet.

A Kashmiri preacher whose sermon on friday was a sermon for independence for the territory of the border village of Ajote

The majority of the 10,000 residents of the border village of Ajote fled, according to the resident, Jastefer Kaur. She said that the rest of them are in the basement of the building. Karamat Hussain, from another border village, Khari, said many residents couldn’t flee, because they had to care for their livestock, like his elderly parents.

As violence continues, India appears to be cracking down more intently on critics. Mirwaiz Umar Farooq, a prominent Kashmiri preacher and advocate for independence for the territory, said on X that he was not allowed to attend mosque friday prayers in indian held Kashmir. He shared a video of his previous Friday sermon, and wrote, “I urge both the countries to urgently de-escalate and not to tread on this dangerous path, which can only lead to destruction.”

The social media network X also said it had received “executive orders” from the Indian government to block more than 8,000 accounts, including news organizations, it said in a message on its global affairs account. Those blocked appeared to include Anuradha Bhasin, a prominent Kashmir-based journalist, and The Wire, an independent news site based in New Delhi. Indian authorities did not respond to requests for comment.

Vaid said explosions were heard from areas with military bases, adding it appeared that army sites were targeted. The people living around the Srinagar’s airport said they were rattled by the explosions and booming sound of jets.

“I was already awake but the explosions jolted my kids out of their sleep. They started crying,” said Srinagar resident Mohammed Yasin, adding he heard at least two explosions.

The International Crisis Group for India (ICSP) urged calm following the Saturday’s missile strikes in Srinagar and Islamabad

Praveen Donthi, a senior analyst with the International Crisis Group for India, said the two countries were at war even if they had not yet labelled it as one.

“It’s become a remorseless race for military one-upmanship with no apparent strategic end goals from either side,” said Donthi. It’s going to be a challenge with more civilian casualties on both sides.

The Indian army said late Friday that drones were sighted in 26 locations across many areas in Indian states bordering Pakistan and Indian-controlled Kashmir, including Srinagar. The drones were tracked and engaged.

In Pakistan, the civil aviation authority shut the country’s airports for all flight operations and people in major cities were seen chanting slogans supporting the armed forces.

The Group of Seven nations urged “maximum restraint” from India and Pakistan. It warned Friday that further military escalation posed a serious threat to regional stability.

Pakistan’s military had said it used medium-range Fateh missiles to hit an Indian missile storage facility and air bases in the cities of Pathankot and Udhampur. The army spokesman said the air force assets were safe.

Army spokesman, Lt. Gen. Ahmad Sharif, said Pakistan’s air force assets were safe following the Indian strikes, adding that some of the Indian missiles also hit India’s eastern Punjab.

State-run Pakistan Television reported that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has convened a meeting of the National Command Authority, the body responsible for overseeing the country’s missile program and other strategic assets.

The call for calm came ahead of Saturday’s Indian missile strikes, which targeted Nur Khan air base in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, near the capital Islamabad, Murid air base in Chakwal city and Rafiqui air base in the Jhang district of eastern Punjab province, according to Pakistan’s military spokesman.

The air base in Rawalpindi, a densely populated city, was not accessible to the media or residents, and there were no immediate reports of residents hearing or seeing the strike.

However, hours after the agreement, explosions heard by residents in Srinagar and Jammu in Indian-controlled Kashmir were followed by blackouts in the two cities. There were no reports of casualties within a few minutes.

The last two nights of drone attacks were not the same as the bombs heard today, says Shesh Paul Vaid, who was the top police official in the region. “It looks like a war here.”

Omar Abdullah, the region’s top elected official, said in a post on social media: “What the hell just happened to the ceasefire? There were blasts heard across Srinagar.

Before the ceasefire was reached Saturday, India’s military held a press briefing in New Delhi, saying Pakistan had targeted health facilities and schools at its three air bases in Kashmir.

Tensions have soared since the attack at a popular tourist site in Indian-controlled Kashmir left 26 civilians dead, mostly Indian Hindu tourists, on April 22.

Though Pakistanis had initially celebrated their army’s retaliation, they were later jubilant about the truce, saying it was a moment of national pride and relief after days of tension.

Conflict between India and Pakistan is not rare, with the two countries having periodically engaged in wars, clashes and skirmishes since gaining independence from British India in 1947.

Both countries would stop firing their weapons in the air and sea, according to the head of military operations from both countries.

The prime minister of Pakistan said Saturday that his country would agree to the ceasefire in the larger interest of peace in the region, and hoped the issues with India would be resolved through peaceful dialogue.

“We believe that any issues in the smooth implementation of the ceasefire should be addressed through communication at appropriate levels,” the ministry said.

Pakistan’s Foreign Ministry blamed Indian forces for the ceasefire violation. The ministry said Pakistan remains committed to the agreement and its forces were handling the situation with responsibility and restraint.

Indian Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said late Saturday that “there had been repeated violations of the understanding arrived between the two countries” and accused Pakistan of breaching the agreement.
