Ceasefire Restores Fragile Peace Between Nuclear Rivals India and Pakistan

More than 50 people were killed in recent military clashes between India and Pakistan. The countries agreed to a ceasefire after escalating tensions involving cross-border strikes. Both nations claim parts of Kashmir and have a history of conflict. Diplomatic efforts, supported by the U.S., facilitated the ceasefire.

Pakistan's army reported that over 50 individuals were killed in last week's hostilities with India, which concluded with a ceasefire between the two nuclear-armed adversaries.

After India attacked alleged terrorist sites in Pakistan, the response led to missile exchanges targeting military installations. Despite differing casualty figures, a U.S.-backed ceasefire was agreed upon on Saturday.

India's Prime Minister Narendra Modi visited the Adampur air base, emphasizing India's readiness against new threats. Historical tensions over Kashmir continue to impact bilateral relations, though recent diplomatic talks offer a glimmer of resolution.
