Tensions spiked in May 2025 after a terror attack in Kashmir killed 26 pilgrims. India responded with Operation Sindoor, targeting alleged terror camps in Pakistan-administered Kashmir. Pakistan retaliated with air and missile strikes.
A brief but intense border conflict followed, prompting Donald Trump to announce a U.S.-brokered ceasefire on May 10. Pakistan supported the move; India called it a bilateral decision.
Despite the ceasefire, ceasefire violations and drone sightings were reported. India warned of swift retaliation, while Pakistan urged peace talks and raised issues like Kashmir and the Indus Waters Treaty.
Air travel was disrupted, with hundreds of flights canceled. Military forces remain on alert, and diplomatic talks are expected to follow. The situation is calm for now, but tensions remain high.
