In a press conference, DG ISPR has “put it on record” that Pakistan “never requested for a ceasefire”.

“On the night of May 6 and 7, after those dastardly and cowardly attacks were made, Indians requested and Pakistan gave a very clear response that we will communicate back only after we have given the response that this act deserves.

“So on May 10, after the response and retribution […] and on the request and intervention of international interlocutors, we responded to the already made request of the Indians,” he said.

The military spokesperson added that peace between India and Pakistan would always allude until the resolution of the Kashmir issue.
