The fragile truce achieved this Saturday between India and Pakistan In the disputed Cashmiro region, it has begun to crack just a few hours after its announcement, with both countries, accusing each other of breaking the agreement mediated by the United States. The Pakistan Foreign Ministry said that “it maintains its commitment to the faithful implementation of Alto El Fuego”, although it denounced that India would have violated it in “some areas.” “Our forces are managing the situation with responsibility and moderation”, He underlined the official statement.
These statements responded to the accusations of the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of India, Vikram Misri, who denounced a series of drone attacks in Srinagar —The main city of the Kashmiro administered by India – just three hours after both governments simultaneously announced the high fire, around 12:30 GMT.
According to Misri, the Indian forces are acting with “proportionality” and they have carried out reprisals in response to the alleged aggression. In addition, Nueva Delhi implemented electricity cuts in several assholes and other areas near the international border, reinforcing tension.
Discussion about at the reach of high fire
From Pakistan, security sources allege that the high fire does not apply to the Control line (LDC)the de facto border in the region in dispute. “India says that the high fire is only in international borders,” said a Pakistani official to the EFE agency, without confirming if there really was a violation of the pact.
India, on the other hand, ensures that the understanding included “All military activities in the sea, in the air and on land”which would also encompass the LDC. The truce was celebrated internationally, with the UN and several countries showing relief from the possibility of a decala after weeks of intense backstream fighting. However, reality in the field seems to go in the opposite direction.
The conflict intensified after Murder of 26 tourists – mostly Indians – in an attack in the Pahalgam area, in the Indian Kashmir. Nueva Delhi directly accused Islamabad of being behind the attack, something that the Pakistani government denies sharply. Since then, at least 98 people have died in the region, most of Kashmir, which once again becomes an epicenter of hostilities between these two nuclear powers in southern Asia. Both parties coincide in the diplomatic message of containment, but on the ground the bullets and drones seem to have the last word. Peace, as so many times in Kashmir, is again a desire than a reality.
