The exchange marks a rare instance of direct military communication between the two countries, following recent tensions that brought the South Asian neighbours to the brink of full-scale war.
Pakistan and India have held the first round of talks between their Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) via a dedicated military hotline, sources confirmed on Monday. The discussions mark a rare moment of direct military communication between the two nuclear-armed neighbours amid heightened border tensions.
According to official sources, the DGMO-level dialogue focused on de-escalating the recent flare-up along the Line of Control (LoC) and reaffirming commitment to previously agreed ceasefire protocols. The talks come in the wake of a series of cross-border incidents that pushed both sides dangerously close to the brink of full-scale conflict.
“The exchange marks a significant and rare instance of structured military communication aimed at reducing misunderstandings and preventing further hostilities,” a senior military official said on condition of anonymity.
Tensions between the two countries have been rising in recent weeks, with both sides accusing each other of unprovoked aggression. The DGMO-level talks are being seen by analysts as a possible step toward broader diplomatic engagement and regional stability.
No joint statement has been issued yet, but officials on both sides have indicated that further rounds of communication are likely if the current talks yield positive outcomes.
