Speaking about ongoing escalating tensions between India and Pakistan, Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri told the media that Pakistan’s Director General of Military Operations contacted his Indian counterpart on Saturday afternoon.
“Pakistan’s Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) called the Indian DGMO at 15:35 hours earlier this afternoon. It was agreed between them that both sides would stop all firing and military action on land and in the air and sea with effect from 1700 hours Indian Standard Time,” he said.
“Today, instructions have been given on both sides to give effect to this understanding. The Director General of Military Operations will talk again on May 12 at 1200 hours,” he added.
At a joint press conference in the morning on the same day, Misri emphasised that the actions being undertaken by Pakistan against India are “escalatory” and “provocative” in nature and are being responded to effectively.
Earlier, India had launched Operation Sindoor on May 7 in reply to the ghastly terror attack in Pahalgam on April 22.
The terror attack had killed 26 people. India had struck nine terror sites in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir. Pakistan sought to up the ante with a series of unprovoked escalations using artillery guns and drones. (ANI)
