On May 10, 2025, India and Pakistan announced a ceasefire agreement intended to reduce hostilities along their disputed border in the Kashmir region. However, only hours after the agreement, explosions were heard in Srinagar, the largest city in Indian-administered Kashmir. Both nations quickly accused each other of violating the newly established truce, with each side blaming the other for the renewed violence. Reports indicate that drone attacks occurred in the region even after the ceasefire was declared. The Kashmir region has long been a flashpoint between India and Pakistan, both of whom claim the territory in full but administer separate parts. Ceasefire agreements have historically been fragile, with frequent accusations of violations from both sides. According to experts cited by DW, the fact that both India and Pakistan are publicly claiming victory in the latest ceasefire could paradoxically help stabilize the crisis, as it allows both governments to present the outcome as a success to their domestic audiences. The situation remains tense, and it is unclear whether the ceasefire will hold in the coming days.
