The ceasefire between India and Pakistan has been holding for a second day, allowing for discussions aimed at extending the truce. Both nations have claimed victory following a recent conflict, but analysts warn that the situation remains precarious and the battle lines have shifted. Despite a U.S.-brokered ceasefire agreement, reports of violations and ongoing tensions persist, with each side accusing the other of breaching the terms. As the region faces heightened military scrutiny, the fragile calm may not signify lasting peace, with geopolitical experts indicating that the new realities in South Asia complicate future de-escalation efforts.
