We're pausing our live coverage of the India-Pakistan conflict, but you can stay across further updates in our main news story. In the meantime, here's what you need to know from the last few hours:
Posting on his Truth Social platform, Donald Trump said a US-brokered ceasefire between India and Pakistan had been agreed to
Pakistan's foreign minister then confirmed the agreement - he added that "three dozen countries" were involved in the talks
BBC teams in Indian-administered Kashmir later reported hearing sounds of explosions in the region - it's still unclear where these are coming from
Not long after, India's Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said there had been "repeated violations of the understanding" the two countries had reached earlier
In an address to the nation, Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif hailed the "historical victory" of the ceasefire but maintained that Pakistan "will do anything for our defence"
Pakistan's foreign ministry then accused India of "violations", but said it is committed to the ceasefire - Pakistan's forces are "handling the situation with responsibility and restraint", the FM added.
