A fragile ceasefire was holding between India and Pakistan on Sunday, after hours of overnight fighting between them, as US President Donald Trump said he will work to provide a solution regarding Kashmir.
\nThe arch rivals were involved in intense firing for four days, the worst in nearly three decades, with missiles and drones being fired at each other’s military installations and dozens of people killed.
\nA ceasefire agreement was reached after diplomacy and pressure from the United States, but within hours, artillery fire was witnessed in Indian Kashmir, the center of much of the fighting.
\nBlasts from air-defense systems boomed in cities near the border under blackout, similar to the previous two evenings, according to authorities, residents and Reuters witnesses.
\nLate on Saturday, India said Pakistan had violated the understanding arrived to stop firing and that the Indian armed forces had been instructed to “deal strongly” with any repetition.
\nIn response, Pakistan said it was committed to the ceasefire and blamed India for the violations.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
