💨 Abstract

India launched a significant military operation, "Operation Sindoor," against Pakistan in response to the Pahalgam terror attack, targeting nine Pakistani sites. After initial success, a surprise ceasefire was announced by U.S. President Donald Trump, mediated by the United States. This move is considered a diplomatic retreat by some, as it was not clearly communicated by the Indian government. There are conflicting narratives about how the ceasefire was arranged, with the Ministry of External Affairs and Trump's administration offering different accounts.
