Air defense activated in Pakistan’s Peshawar hours after Indo-Pak truce announcement

Just hours after India and Pakistan are agreeing to an 'immediate ceasefire,' reports are emerging of air defense systems being activated and projectiles being fired in the skies over Peshawar, Pakistan, on Saturday, May 10. According to the Associated Press, a drone is being sighted over the northwestern Pakistani city of Peshawar, prompting authorities to activate air defenses. Anti-aircraft gunfire is being seen in the city, but there is no immediate comment from Pakistani officials. Meanwhile, Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah is confirming explosions in the Indian city of Srinagar, shortly after the two nuclear-armed neighbors are announcing the truce. A senior Indian government official is stating, 'Ceasefire violations along the Line of Control (LoC) and drone sightings over Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab, and Rajasthan are being observed.' The ceasefire agreement, announced earlier on Saturday, is coming after days of escalated hostilities involving fighter jets, missiles, drones, and artillery exchanges. The breakthrough is being unexpectedly revealed by U.S. President Donald Trump, who is praising both countries for exercising 'common sense.'
