India and Pakistan will continue the confidence-building measures agreed between their two top military officers to end the brief conflict following the terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam that killed 26 tourists, sources have said. The Pahalgam terror attack was the “original escalation”, India said during a briefing on Operation Sindoor last week.
India and Pakistan reached an understanding on May 10 to end the conflict after four days of cross-border drone and missile strikes.
Further to the understanding between the two DGMOs on May 10, it has been decided to continue the confidence-building measures so as to reduce the alertness level. As the situation develops further, we will inform you,” a source said.
Director General of Military Operations (DGMO) Lieutenant General Rajiv Ghai and his Pakistani counterpart Major General Kashif Abdullah had spoken before the understanding was reached.
