India launched missiles at three Pakistan air bases

The explosions in Srinagar, India, and Pakistan triggered by the ICR crisis group: a remorseless race for the two countries

The blasts were heard from areas with military bases, and it appeared that army sites were targeted. Residents living near Srinagar’s airport, which is also an air base, said they were rattled by the explosions and booming sound of jets.

The explosions scared my kids out of their sleep. They started crying,” said Srinagar resident Mohammed Yasin, adding he heard at least two explosions.

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.

The race has become remorseless and no apparent strategic end goals from either side. Finding an exit is going to be challenging due to the increasing casualties on both sides.

India’s army said that it destroyed several armed drones that were spotted flying over the military cantonment in Amritsar early Saturday.

In Pakistan, the civil aviation authority shut the country’s airports for flights and people in major cities were chanting slogans in support of the armed forces.

The Indian-Pakistan War: A Threat to the Regional Security in the Light of the ‘Summa’ Summit’, the United Nations, and the Group of Seven

“maximum restraint” from India and Pakistan was urged by the Group of Seven nations. The military was warned Friday that it was a serious threat to regional stability.

According to a spokesman for the military of Pakistan, missiles were launched at three bases, including one in the garrison city of Rawalpindi, and another in the eastern Punjab district of Jhang.

Pakistan’s military had said it used missiles to destroy the Indian missile storage facility in the cities of Pathankot and Udhampur. The nation’s air force assets are safe after the Indian attacks, according to the army spokesman.

The army spokesman said that the Pakistan’s air force assets were safe after the Indian strikes, and that some of the Indian missiles hit India’s eastern Punjab.

A meeting of the National Command Authority, which is responsible for overseeing the country’s missile program, has been convened by the Prime Minister, according to Pakistan Television.

Tensions between the nuclear-armed rivals increased after 26 people were killed in an attack on a popular tourist site in India controlled Kashmir. Pakistan is accused of backing the assault by New Delhi.

State Department spokesperson Tammy Bruce said Rubio continued to urge both parties to “find ways to deescalate and offered U.S. assistance in starting constructive talks” in order to avoid future conflicts.

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.

There was no media access to the air base in Rawalpindi, a densely populated city, and no immediate reports of residents hearing or seeing the strike or its aftermath.

The explosions heard in Srinagar and Jammu in Indian-controlled Kashmir, as well as the power cuts in the city, occurred hours after the agreement. There were no injuries reported.

“Explosions that we are hearing today are different from the ones we heard the last two nights during drone attacks,” said Shesh Paul Vaid, the region’s former top police official and Jammu resident. “It looks like a war here.”

The U.S.-Pakistan War on Kashmir: Addressing the Dispatch Overthrew by the USA, Britain, and India

The first word of the truce came from U.S. President Donald Trump, who posted on his Truth Social platform that India and Pakistan had agreed to a full and immediate ceasefire: “Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence. Thanks for your attention to this matter!

India’s military held a press conference in New Delhi that stated that Pakistan had attacked health facilities and schools in Kashmir.

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.

The U.S. Secretary of State and the Vice President spoke to senior officials from both countries over the course of the past 48 hours. Prime Minister Narendra Modi, External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar, the Chief of Army Staff of Pakistan, and the Indian Prime Minister were included in the group.

India and Pakistan have been involved in wars, skirmishes and clashed since gaining independence from British India in 1947.

Misri said that the head of military operations from the two countries agreed that they would stop firing and military action in the air and sea.

Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said in a speech Saturday that his country agreed to the ceasefire in the larger interest of peace in the region and hoped all the outstanding issues with India, including the long-running dispute over the Kashmir region, would be resolved through peaceful dialogue.

The ministry says that any issues in the smooth implementation of the ceasefire should be addressed through communication at appropriate levels.

He asked Pakistan to take appropriate steps to address the violations and deal with the situation with seriousness and responsibility. Misri said that the indian army was responding to a border intrusion.

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.

The Indian–Pakistan Interaction since the Neelum War ended in March 2001: An open-armed conflict in Kashmir’s northern outskirts

In Pakistan-controlled Kashmir’s Neelum Valley, which is three kilometers from the Line of Control, people said there were exchanges of fire and heavy shelling after the ceasefire began.

Nuclear-armed neighbors agreed to stop all firing and military action on land, in the air and at sea as a result of the ceasefire. They accused one another of repeatedly violating the deal.

Pakistan has not commented on Trump or the U.S. since the deal was announced. Nor has India acknowledged anyone beyond its military contact with the Pakistanis.

Both armies have engaged in daily fighting since Wednesday along the rugged and mountainous Line of Control, which is marked by razor wire coils, watchtowers and bunkers that snake across foothills populated by villages, tangled bushes and forests.
