As of May 10, 2025, India

and Pakistan have agreed to a full and immediate ceasefire following a significant military escalation that began in late April. The conflict was triggered by a terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Kashmir, on April 22, which killed 26 people and injured 20. India attributed the attack to a Pakistan-based militant group, leading to a series of retaliatory measures including the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty, expulsion of Pakistani diplomats, and closure of borders.

In response, India launched Operation Sindoor on May 7, targeting alleged terrorist infrastructure in Pakistan. Pakistan retaliated with Operation Bunyān Mārsūs, involving airstrikes and missile attacks. The ensuing conflict resulted in over 60 civilian deaths and significant military casualties on both sides.

The ceasefire agreement was brokered through international mediation, notably by the United States, with support from Saudi Arabia and Turkey. U.S. President Donald Trump announced the agreement, praising both nations for their cooperation. Despite the ceasefire, tensions remain high, with both militaries on alert and underlying issues unresolved, including the suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty.
