On April 1, 2025, the Pakistan Army violated the ceasefire by crossing the Line of Control (LoC) in Jammu and Kashmir’s Poonch district and opening fire on Indian positions in the Krishna Ghati sector. The Indian Army responded effectively in a controlled and calibrated manner, resulting in the situation being brought under control.
In the retaliatory action by Indian forces, two Pakistani soldiers were reportedly killed. This incident marks a significant escalation, as it is the first reported ceasefire violation by Pakistan in four years, following the reaffirmation of the 2003 ceasefire agreement in February 2021.
The ceasefire along the LoC has largely held since 2021, contributing to a period of relative peace in the region. The recent violation raises concerns about potential impacts on regional stability and the future of diplomatic relations between India and Pakistan. Both nations have previously engaged in dialogue to maintain peace along the border, and this development underscores the importance of continued diplomatic efforts to prevent further escalations.
