Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Omar Abdullah in a post on X said he heard some "explosions" in Srinagar. Minutes later, many residents of the city posted visuals on X showing what they claimed was tracer fire by anti-aircraft guns at incoming drones in the night sky.

Multiple explosions were heard in two cities in India-controlled Kashmir hours after India and Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire deal, following the US-led talks to end the most serious military confrontation between the nuclear-armed rivals in decades. Residents said the loud explosions in Srinagar and Jammu were followed by a blackout.
