After four days of intense exchange of drones and missiles, India and Pakistan agreed to immediately ceasefire across land, sea, and air on Saturday (May 10).

However, hours after the ceasefire was announced, Pakistan violated it, sending multiple drones over Jammu and Kashmir. Blackouts were imposed in several bordering cities after loud explosions were heard in J&K as India’s air defence system opened back up to intercept enemy drones.

Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri confirmed the ceasefire violations by Pakistan and urged Islamabad to take appropriate steps over the same.

Earlier on May 9, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during talks with US Vice President JD Vance, over the de-escalation agreement with Pakistan said India will give a “devastating” reply to Islamabad if they do anything, said sources on Operation Sindoor.
