India-Pakistan live: Pakistan and India accuse each other of violating ceasefire deal - as Trump talks of trade boost for both countries

Pakistan and India accused each other of violating a ceasefire agreement - just hours after reaching a deal. It follows Donald Trump's earlier announcement that Islamabad and New Delhi agreed to a "full and immediate" ceasefire following talks mediated by the US.

 Thanks for following our coverage, we're pausing our live updates for now.

Before we go, here's a summary of today's key events:

The ceasefire between India and Pakistan has appeared to hold after both sides accused each other of violations last night.

Donald Trump - who was keen to take credit for the ceasefire yesterday - praised the leaders of both countries for stopping the aggression "that could have led to the death and destruction of so many, and so much".

The US president also said he will work with both sides "to see if, after a 'thousand years', a solution can be arrived at concerning Kashmir" - something that sparked reaction from both Pakistan and India.

Pakistan's foreign office reaffirmed that any just and lasting settlement of disputes involving Jammu and Kashmir must include the right of Kashmiri people to self-determination.

Meanwhile, an Indian MP called for "someone in the US establishment" to "seriously educate their president" on Kashmir.

Manish Tewari took to social media site X to say Kashmir "is not a biblical 1,000 year old conflict" and pointed out that it began in 1947.

Over at the Vatican, Pope Leo XIV used his first Sunday prayer address to mention the ceasefire between India and Pakistan.

The new pope appealed to the world's major powers for "no more war" as he addressed the crowd in St Peter's Square.

"I was happy to hear that there is a ceasefire between India and Pakistan and I hope that through the coming negotiations we might soon come to a lasting accord," he said.

Watch: Pope calls for 'no more war'

We brought you comments from Pope Leo XIV earlier, who used his first Sunday prayer address to call for "no more war" (see 11.44 post).

More specifically, he told the crowd at St Peter's Square that he was "happy to hear" about the ceasefire between India and Pakistan.

Analysis: India and Pakistan were close to miscalculation either side couldn't afford

By Cordelia Lynch, Asia correspondent, in Lahore, Pakistan

Both India and Pakistan claimed they didn't want all-out war, or for things to escalate.

But given that those statements came within hours of airstrikes from either side, it's easy to understand why the world was sceptical.

Fast forward just a few hours though and a ceasefire has been agreed - with the help of the US, who brokered talks and even announced the deal.

The agreement has sparked celebrations in Pakistan, with people in many cities, including Lahore, taking to the streets. Chants of "Pakistan Zindabad" - "Long Live Pakistan" in English - are ringing out.

But the deal doesn't undo the events of the past two weeks, which will continue to weigh heavily on the minds of many here.

Terror group supporters posted on social media from site targeted in Indian strikes

Social media accounts expressing support for a Pakistan-based terror group linked to al Qaeda appear to have posted recent videos from a Pakistan mosque targeted by Indian airstrikes.

Sky News has found videos posted on TikTok, YouTube and Google that appear to be filmed at the Markaz Taiba Mosque in Muridke. The captions and usernames contain expressions of support for the Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) and a group called '313'.

Sky News has found and geolocated multiple videos that appear to be filmed in the area where the captions include either or both '313' and LeT.

Some of the videos show men in the streets with guns. Another post captioned a video of children doing martial arts training inside the targeted mosque, "we are little soldiers, and we fight the non-believers".

Pakistan lost 35-40 military personnel in fighting, India says

An update to bring you now from India's military, which has said Pakistan lost 35 to 40 military personnel in fighting.

We've been bringing you updates on the escalation between the two countries since India's strikes on Pakistan and Pakistan-administered territory on Wednesday.

India insists those strikes were in response to the militant gun attack in Indian-controlled Kashmir last month which killed 26 people.

On Thursday, Pakistan claimed it had killed "40-50 Indian soldiers" along the border between the two countries.

A ceasefire still appears to be holding despite both sides accusing each other of violations last night.

Explained: Where is Kashmir and why is it disputed?

As we've been reporting over the last few days, Kashmir is at the heart of the tension between India and Pakistan.

The two countries have fought several wars and conflicts since their independence from Britain in 1947, primarily due to territorial disputes over Kashmir.

Both countries claim the Himalayan region as their own, but in reality control different sections of the territory.

In 1947 - months after British India was partitioned into a predominantly Hindu India and a Muslim-majority Pakistan - the two young states fought their first war over control of Muslim-majority Kashmir, which was then a kingdom ruled by a Hindu monarch.

The war killed thousands before ending in 1948.

In 1949, a UN-brokered ceasefire line left Kashmir divided between India and Pakistan, with the promise of a UN-sponsored vote to enable the region's people to decide whether to be part of Pakistan or India.

That vote has never been held.

The dispute over the land has claimed the lives of tens of thousands of people over the past three decades, though outbreaks of sporadic violence did seem to have eased in recent years.

Timeline: The story of India and Pakistan's 2025 conflict

A deadly attack in the India-administered region of Kashmir triggered the threat of war in the region last month.

Since then, India and Pakistan have escalated their dispute, seeing the worst fighting in more than two decades between the countries.

Here's a timeline of how the two nuclear neighbours have moved closer to war this year:

Let's take you back to the moments after the ceasefire between India and Pakistan was announced yesterday.

People took to the streets in both countries, holding signs and waving flags as they celebrated the announcement.

Watch: Ceasefire is a political win for Trump

More now on Donald Trump, who is claiming the cessation of hostilities in India and Pakistan as a win for US diplomacy and his role as "peacemaker in chief".

In the region itself, Pakistan has hailed his efforts, as we've just explained in our previous post.

India meanwhile did not refer to Washington at all when it announced the deal, saying it came around as a result of direct talks.

Here are the thoughts of our US correspondent James Matthews on how America has helped shape this ceasefire.

'A great partner': Pakistan's PM heaps more praise on Trump after ceasefire

We've told you about the difference in tone from India and Pakistan towards the US after the ceasefire was announced yesterday.

Pakistan was highly complimentary of Donald Trump's role (see 7.54 post), while India didn't mention the US.

But Pakistan's prime minister has continued with his flattery towards Trump in a post on X.

"I am extremely grateful to president Trump for his pathbreaking leadership and commitment to global peace and for his most valuable offer to play a greater role in bringing lasting peace to South Asia," Shehbaz Sharif said.

He described Pakistan and the US as partners who "worked together closely to protect and promote our mutual interests as well as for peace and security in critical parts of the world".

"I am confident that in Trump, Pakistan has found a great partner who can reinvigorate our strategic partnership and strengthen Pakistan-US ties, not only in trade and investment but in all other areas of cooperation," he added.
