He also added that the Pakistani government should take responsibility and said, “This intrusion is extremely condemnable and Pakistan is responsible for it. We believe that Pakistan should understand this situation properly and take appropriate action immediately to stop this intrusion.”

Reacting to the ceasefire agreement, Pakistan on Sunday said that it “remains committed to faithful implementation” of the deal reached with India. The country's foreign ministry claimed that its forces “are handling the situation with responsibility and restraint,” and accused India of committing “violations.”

Drones have been spotted in several parts of Jammu and Kashmir, Gujarat's Kutch, Punjab and Rajasthan following Pakistan's violation of a ceasefire deal with India.

India's air defence system has intercepted and blocked several drones. Further, sirens have been blaring as blackouts are enforced and the public is asked to stay indoors in several districts.

US President Donald Trump on Saturday had announced a ceasefire between the countries and stated that the talks between the countries had been mediated by America.

The matter was confirmed by Pakistani foreign minister Ishaq Dar, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and India's External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar.

The two countries had come to an understanding to halt all military action on land, air and sea. However, India has stated that the Indus Waters Treaty will remain in abeyance and that a ban on visas for Pakistani nationals would continue.

In a press briefing, held by the Ministry of External affairs and Ministry of Defence, Air Commodre Raghu Nair stated that while a ceasefire had been agreed upon, India was ready to protect its sovereignty at all times.

Earlier on Saturday, the Indian Air Force struck eight military sites in Pakistan, including radar units and ammunition dumps, in response to the Pakistan military's attacks on Indian military bases and civilian areas.

In the early hours of Saturday, multiple explosions were heard in several Indian cities, including Jammu, Srinagar and Udhampur in Jammu and Kashmir.

Meanwhile, Pakistan shelling in Rajouri resulted in the demise of the region's additional district development commissioner Raj Kumar Thapa. Jammu and Kashmir chief minister Omar Abdullah later visited the affected the civilian areas in Jammu, as well as Thapa's residence.

The ministry of civil aviation on Saturday also announced that now 32 airports will be closed till 5:29 am on May 15 for all civil flight operations. The Airports Authority of India also extended the temporary closure of 25 segments of Air Traffic Service (ATS) routes within the Delhi and Mumbai Flight Information Regions (FIRs) due to operational reasons.

India had on May 7 launched 'Operation Sindoor' with targeted strikes on nine terror camps in Pakistan and Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) in response to the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that left 26 people dead. At an all party meeting earlier, Rajnath Singh informed that at least 100 terrorists were killed in the operation.
