Jammu city remained peaceful on Sunday following a day of heightened tensions triggered by heavy shelling from Pakistan. No incidents involving drones, gunfire, or shelling were reported during the night of May 10–11. Similar calm prevailed in Poonch, with no fresh cross-border activity recorded overnight.

Despite the relative calm, the Amritsar District Collector issued a red alert on Sunday in light of the continued tensions between India and Pakistan. Residents have been strongly advised to stay indoors and avoid windows.

In an official statement, the Collector said, “Power supply has been restored for your convenience, but the red alert remains in place. Sirens will sound to mark the alert. Please do not leave your homes or go near windows. We will inform you once it is safe. Remain calm and follow all guidelines.”

At around 4:39 am, residents were also advised to keep lights off and stay away from open areas such as roads, terraces, and balconies as a precaution.

The alert comes after India accused Pakistan on Saturday of violating a ceasefire understanding reached earlier that day between the Directors General of Military Operations (DGMOs) of both countries. According to Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri, Pakistan resumed unprovoked firing despite the agreement.

Misri emphasized the seriousness of the breach and said India’s armed forces had been directed to respond firmly to any future provocations. “These violations are taken very seriously. Our armed forces are maintaining strict vigilance and have been instructed to respond strongly to any further breaches along both the International Border and the Line of Control,” he stated.

India had earlier launched Operation Sindoor in retaliation for the deadly April 22 terror attack in Pahalgam, which claimed 26 lives. As part of the operation, India struck multiple terror targets in Pakistan and Pakistan-Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (PoJK), prompting an escalation in hostilities.
