Srinagar/Jammu, May 10 (PTI) As soon as India and Pakistan achieved an understanding on Saturday to end the military action, Jammu and Kashmir were shaken by a number of drones, followed by an explosion, led by security staff to engage air defense systems to reduce them.
Episodes in Kashmir and the Province of Jammu have caused serious concerns about the possible violation of Pakistan a freshly announced ceasefire, the officials said.
In Srinagar, citizens reported several explosions after dusk, when air defense forces involved drones flying over the neighborhood of Batware near the strategic army device. Officials confirmed that the drone was reduced.
The explosions that came every 15 minutes and preceded the flares of illuminating the dark sky, caused an immediate alarm and confusion.
Minister Omar Abdullah, during the evolving events, was discarded by skepticism about the statement of the “ceasefire” on the social media.
“It’s not a ceasefire. Units of air defense in the middle of Srinagar have just opened,” he said on X, adding, “What the hell just happened to the ceasefire? Explosions heard across Srinagar !!”
Foreign Minister Vikram Misri announced that the CEO of Military Operations (DGMOS) in India and Pakistan agreed to stop all shooting and military events on the land, air and sea on Saturday. The short announcement of the Foreign Minister came shortly after US President Donald Trump said India and Pakistan agreed on the “complete and immediate ceasefire” after the US -mediated interviews.
The activity of the drones was reported in the Kashmir Valley and subsequently destroyed by the anti-Dron system above the city of Baramulla in northern Kashmir around 20:20.
Another drone was reportedly overthrown to Anantnag High Ground, also in close proximity to the installation of the army.
The observation of the drones were also reported from the Anantnag District Verinag and Bandipora and Safapora, with details that have not yet been accepted.
Although officials explained that there were no reports in the Kashmir area of the shelling on the control line (LOC), the situation on the side of Jammu also indicated a similar scene of broken peace.
Although the stopping of shooting and military events was directly developed between India and Pakistan, the chain of explosions was heard on Saturday evening, the officials reported on Saturday evening.
The air sirens wailed parts of Jammu, followed by explosions, which had temporary cuts in some areas.
Although the reason for the explosion has not yet been confirmed, the locals said that they had seen the army units of air defense, which resorted to shooting in an effort to neutralize enemy drones.
The reports of the shelling of mortar and the shooting of hand firearms also appeared from the international border (IB) and LOC in the RS Pura sector, Akhnor in Jammu and Nowshera in the Rajouri district, the officials said.
The parallel activity of drones and explosions in both areas, so shortly after the announcement of the understanding occurred earlier on Saturday evening, caused serious doubts about the sincerity of Pakistan towards the ceasefire and the possibilities of increased escalation, the officials added.
