A U.S.-mediated ceasefire between India and Pakistan, effective from 5 PM IST, has seemingly collapsed within hours as air defense units in Srinagar opened fire tonight. Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah reported explosions across the city, posting on X at 9:24 PM IST: “This is no ceasefire. The air defence units in the middle of Srinagar just opened up,” alongside a video showing drone attacks.
The engagement suggests a Pakistani aerial threat, possibly drones, amid ongoing tensions following the April 22 Pahalgam attack and India’s Operation Sindoor.
X posts also report shelling in Akhnoor and blasts in Rajouri, indicating widespread ceasefire violations. No official statements from India or Pakistan have confirmed the incident’s details. Srinagar residents are on edge as the military remains on high alert. Stay tuned for updates.
