All military action, air, land, and sea, to stop; India, while agreeing to ceasefire, says ready to respond to any Pakistani misadventures

- PARWINDER SANDHU

Ending days of hostilities following the launch of Operation Sindoor four days ago to punish those responsible for the Pahalgam terror attack of 22 April in which 26 people were massacred, a ceasefire between the Indian and Pakistani militaries went into effect this evening.

India has, however, warned that its armed forces are ready to hit back if there are any "misadventures" on the part of Pakistan.

"An understanding has been reached to stop all military activities at sea, in the air, and on land. The Indian Army, Indian Navy and Indian Air Force have been instructed to adhere to this understanding," IAF Commodore Raghu R Nair said while addressing a Ministry of Defence briefing on Saturday evening.

He said that the Indian military forces will adhere to the ceasefire agreement but would be ready for any eventuality.
