In Srinagar, the agreement reached
Monday gave Kashmiris some hope.
“If the guns fall silent, it will mean a dif

the cattle. But how can one live in an inferno?”
In Islamabad, analysts and citizens

“This is good in every respect. There should
be no fighting between the two nations,” said
Gul Mohammed, an oil company worker.
But he was skeptical the cease-fire would
last, saying, “This will not be durable. There
have been steps like these in the past."
