Pakistan's Foreign Minister Ishaq Dar has stated that India did not request a ceasefire during Operation Sindoor, contrary to claims made by Pakistan's Army Chief Asim Munir. Dar confirmed that Pakistan, through the US and Saudi Arabia, initiated ceasefire talks with India. He recounted a call from Saudi Prince Faisal bin Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud, who offered to convey Pakistan's readiness for a truce to Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar. This statement clarifies Pakistan's role in seeking a cessation of hostilities following Indian strikes on Pakistani airbases.
