INDIA and Pakistan have agreed to a “full and immediate ceasefire”, Donald Trump has claimed.
Tensions between the two countries had threatened to boil over since India launched missiles at “terror targets” in Pakistan earlier this week.
Trump wrote: “After a long night of talks mediated by the United States, I am pleased to announce that India and Pakistan have agreed to a FULL AND IMMEDIATE CEASEFIRE.
“Congratulations to both Countries on using Common Sense and Great Intelligence. Thank you for your attention to this matter!”
The unexpected announcement has not been met with any comment reaction from either India or Pakistan – who continued to trade missiles overnight.
Last month, dozens of tourists in India-controlled Kashmir were killed in a mass shooting – which the authorities pinned on Pakistan.
India had vowed to respond, and this week launched a volley of missiles at its neighbour.
Pakistan said early this morning it had launched a retaliatory operation against India with missile and drone strikes on 25 targets.
They claimed to have attacked airbases and weapons depots in the Indian states of Gujarat, Punjab and Rajasthan, as well as locations in India-administered Kashmir.
The two nations had adopted aggressive positions, and announced named military operations against one another.
