Earlier today, India and Pakistan agreed to stop military actions on land, air and sea. The government confirmed a ceasefire on Saturday, corroborating US President Donald Trump's claim of ceasefire. In a press brief, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said the military action had been called off from 17:00 hours.
“DGMO (Director General of Military Operations) of Pakistan called up DGMO (of India) at 3.35 pm. They agreed that both sides will stop all firing and military action from land, air and sea from 5 pm onwards,” Misri said.
