India and Pakistan are observing a fragile ceasefire after intense border clashes, with U.S. President Donald Trump offering support for a peaceful resolution to ongoing issues, including Kashmir.
India and Pakistan are maintaining a delicate ceasefire following several days of heightened tensions and border clashes, marking the most significant escalation in nearly three decades.
