A fragile ceasefire is holding between India and Pakistan on Sunday, after hours of overnight fighting between the nuclear-armed neighbors. The arch rivals were involved in intense firing for four days, the worst in nearly three decades, with missiles and drones being fired at each other's military installations and dozens of people killed.

Iran’s foreign minister has held talks with top Pakistani officials to try and mediate in the escalation between Islamabad and New Delhi after last month’s deadly attack on tourists in the Indian-controlled part of Kashmir.

Pakistan and India moved closer to all-out war as each said they struck the other’s military sites in the early hours of Saturday.
