Amid rising hostilities between India and Pakistan following recent cross-border attacks, former U.S. President Donald Trump claimed on Saturday that both nations have agreed to a “full and immediate ceasefire.” The announcement, made through a post on X (formerly Twitter), follows what Trump described as intense overnight mediation efforts by the United States.

This development comes after a deadly terror attack in Kashmir last month that led to escalating military exchanges between the two nuclear-armed countries. Trump praised the decision, calling it a sign of “strong leadership and great intelligence” from both sides.
As of now, neither the Indian nor the Pakistani government has issued an official statement confirming the ceasefire agreement. Military readiness remains high in border regions, but there have been no fresh reports of conflict since the announcement.
The international community has welcomed the move cautiously, urging both sides to commit to de-escalation and dialogue. Diplomats say sustained peace will require further negotiations on underlying issues.
