PM Modi's address to nation
In his address to the nation on Monday night, PM Modi stated that India has just paused its retaliation against terrorists and military bases of Islamabad, and not ended it.
He also gave a loud warning to Pakistan that India will not tolerate any 'nuclear blackmail', adding that operations against Islamabad have been kept in abeyance and the future will depend on their behavior.
Indo-Pak ceasefire talks
Meanwhile, the directors general of military operations (DGMOs) of India and Pakistan spoke to each other over the hotline at around 5 pm on Monday, for about 30 minutes. They discussed the upholding of the understanding reached on May 10, to stop all military actions against each other.
They discussed continuing the commitment that both sides "must not fire a single shot" or initiate any aggressive or inimical action against each other, the army said.
India and Pakistan on Saturday, May 10, had arrived at an understanding to put an immediate stoppage to all military actions against each other across land, air, and sea. This truce came after four days of intense cross-border fighting which followed India's Operation Sindoor against terror infrastructure in Pakistan.
Operation Sindoor was launched on May 7 to strike down targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir as a response to the April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 26 people, most civilians.

Air India and IndiGo cancelled flights to and from eight and six locations, respectively, for Tuesday, May 13.
The Tata-owned Air India cancelled its two-way flights for Jammu, Leh, Jodhpur, Amritsar, Bhuj, Jamnagar, Chandigarh and Rajkot. Meanwhile, IndiGo airline cancelled its flight operations to and from Jammu, Amritsar, Chandigarh, Leh, Srinagar, and Rajkot.
